Gersfeld (Rhön), auf etwa 400 Meter über Normal Null gelegen, ist eine als Luftkurort und Kneipp-Heilbad anerkannte Stadt inmitten der hessischen Rhön. Rechts oben die Wasserkuppe mit Radarkuppel, mit einer Höhe von 950 Meter höchster Berg der Rhön. Links oben der 705 Meter hohe Wachtküppel. Mitte oben das Fuldaer Haus vor der 706 Meter hohen Maulkuppe.
Der Kreuzberg, mit 928 Meter über Normalnull der höchste Berg im bayerischen Teil der Rhön, bei minus zehn Grad Celsius Lufttemperatur und etwa zwanzig Zentimeter Schnee. Im Hintergrund der Sender Kreuzberg, ein 1985 erbauter, 208 Meter hoher Stahlrohrmast. Vorne die zwölfte Station des im Jahr 1710 entstandenen Kapellenkreuzweges, dem vermutlich ältesten Kapellenkreuzweg in Deutschland. Links davon die Stationen neun bis elf.
Found a way to the top of the Mountain. The weather wasn't the best. But the view is amazing.
