Mountaineering

The desert height is one of the easy eight-thousanders. Suddenly you are at the summit in the middle of the forest. A bench invites you to relax. You need your own ink pad or pencil for the stamping point.

Mountaineering

The desert height was previously unnamed (also on the stamp card), then desert height, since 2014 ALSO called Helbighöhe. The place is right on the path in the forest.
