View of Schalkau from Galgenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Galgenberg is a nice highlight, because it is after the Schaumburg, the second most beautiful excursion train to Schalkau. It offers a fantastic view over the city, as well as the surrounding places, Katzberg, Ehnes, Almerswind to direction Franconia. Furthermore, here is a beautiful hut, with seating to breathe, which can also find a good shelter. 🙂👌

Here you can let off steam! A great place for kids to play hide and seek, fool around or just take a short break :)
Also for mountain bikers a small highlight!
