Oskarhöhe in Bendorf-Sayn is a popular viewpoint with a shelter offering a magnificent panoramic view of the Rhine valley, the Eifel, Alt-Sayn, and the abbey church. The point is located on the route of well-known hiking trails such as the Traumpfad Saynsteig and the Rheinsteig. The hill was named after Oskar Kroeber, the former director of the Sayner Hütte (Sayn ironworks) and founder of the Sayner Verschönerungsverein (Sayn beautification society).

Called Spielmanns Heiligenhäuschen in memory of the minstrel from Sayntal who got lost in the forest on his way home from the Anhausen fair and froze to death.

Almost always muddy, but for 20 meters you get the feeling of flow 🤪, no joke, it's just a path that leads to the main road and at the end there's a small steep descent which can be slippery in snow and ice.

From this small car park you can get directly into the Bürgerwald and if you are very good on your feet, you can make it to the Roman Tower and its hiking trail, the Roman Tower Trail. At the end, the Bexbach Valley is waiting for you to discover it. Have fun exploring 😊
