View from Silberklippe

Highlight • Viewpoint

The silver cliff is 491 meters above sea level and, when the weather is good, offers a wide view of Hessian Switzerland, the lakes in front of Eschwege, the Leuchtberg with its Bismarck tower and the Kaufunger Wald hiking area. In mid-May you can enjoy and experience the wild garlic flower and its scent of fresh garlic.

Original Inner German Border Marker

Highlight • Monument

Wherever there was a bend in the border with the GDR, there was a so-called "border stone" made of granite, which was measured by the cadastral authorities of both German states in the 1970s.
The cross in the middle of the stone marked the exact route of the border to the GDR.
