Hohe Warte

Hohe Warte, Mountain summit in Fichtelgebirge, Bavaria, Germany.

Hohe Warte is a 546.7-metre-high diabase hill immediately west of Bad Berneck in Bavaria's Fichtel Mountains. At its foot the Bundesstraßen 2 and 303 meet where the Ölschnitz flows into the White Main. A rampart on the southern spur, in the Hohe Warte (Kirchleite) area, is still visible but cannot be dated.

The Hohe Warte is a diabase hill west of Bad Berneck, where the B2 and B303 roads meet at its foot and the Ölschnitz flows into the White Main. On its southern spur, in the Hohe Warte (Kirchleite) area, a rampart system survives in sections, but it cannot be dated. A wooden observation tower stood on the summit from 1975, built on the initiative of the Naturpark Fichtelgebirge association, and has since been demolished for safety reasons.

The Main Trail, marked with a blue M on a white background, runs from the Protestant church in Bad Berneck past the Grüner Pavillon viewpoint above the Kurhausfelsen and the Rothersfels viewpoint up to the summit. The wooden observation tower built on the summit in 1975 on the initiative of the Naturpark Fichtelgebirge association has since been demolished for safety reasons.

Visitors can reach the summit using clearly marked hiking trails that start from parking areas near the base of the mountain. The paths remain open year-round and offer routes of varying difficulty through the forest.

A wooden observation tower stood on the summit from 1975, built on the initiative of the Naturpark Fichtelgebirge association; its roofed platform looked over the Main valley, the Fichtelgebirge, the Franconian Jura and the Frankenwald. It has since been demolished for safety reasons, so the summit no longer offers that view.
