The Wissberg, also known as "Tafelberg" due to its elongated plateau, is nestled between the towns of Gau-Bickelheim, Sprendlingen, St. Johann, Wolfsheim, Vendersheim, Wallertheim, and Gau-Weinheim in the wine and hill country of Rhineland-Palatinate. Hiking trails lead from each of these 7 places onto and around the mountain, offering views of the Rhineland-Palatinate panorama and geological features. But it's not just the picturesque views that attract visitors to the mountain. The available refreshment options, the iconic Cross Chapel, and the golf course are also popular destinations.
