Foot knoll and Fulda House

The mouth tip is a 706 m above sea level. NN -high mountain in the Rhön in Hesse ( Germany ).

Geographical location

The foot dome rises within the county of Fulda in the Rhön Nature Reserve or the Rhön Biosphere Reserve. In the Kuppenrhön it lies approximately 900 m northeast of stone wall (northern district of Poppenhausen ) with the mountain of the same stone wall. Approximately 2.3 km north-east is the more familiar Milseburg.

Mountain Description

On the wooded foot summit is the round Fulda house. It was built in 1924 and has since been to Rhön Club - Club Branch Fulda. Here is now a guest house offering accommodation. Right next to the Fulda house is a youth hostel and a youth campground.

On the way towards Milseburg a carved wooden wing was suspended from a tree. Another product of Popp Hausener sculptor days is the giant Mils, which was set up a few feet away.
