Bench on the Rhein-Höhen-Weg at Tippenssee

Highlight • Rest Area

Actually, the highlight should be called the rest bench on the RHW, because at the moment there is only one bench for sitting. The second one is missing the wood, but maybe that will be replaced soon.

View of Wiesbaden and the Rhine Valley from Jagdschloss Platte

Highlight • Viewpoint

Wonderful view over Wiesbaden, quickly reached from the nearby Platte. It is worth it .. The access from the northern dirt road is the easiest, but do not miss the branch on the beaten track!

December 11, 2022,Wiesbaden Jagdschloss Platte - Rassel

The Jagdschloss Platte above Wiesbaden is a good starting point for tours in the Taunus. Today we went at an altitude of almost 600 meters first to the Theiss valley and then to the Rassel mountain. Despite -1 degrees and light snowfall, it quickly got warm due to the brisk pace combined with the differences in altitude 🙂
