Dreistelzberg, Mountain summit in Rhön, Germany
The Dreistelzberg rises 660 meters above sea level, forming a prominent peak within the Bavarian district of Bad Kissingen in the Rhön Mountains.
The mountain emerged through volcanic activity, creating distinctive geological formations that serve as evidence of ancient volcanic processes in the Rhön region.
The mountain name derives from a folk tale about three proud women whose castle disappeared into the mountain after they refused hospitality to a pilgrim.
A steel observation tower at the western summit provides panoramic views extending to Spessart, Taunus, Vogelsberg, and the Sinn valley below.
The mountain contains a volcanic pipe formation, making it an important geological study site within the Rhön Biosphere Reserve.
