In contrast to most of the other elevations in this natural area, the summit has been cleared and is used for agriculture. The court Hochscheid is located just southwest of the highest point. Further to the east, on a foothill, the Glashütte mountain, there is another agricultural property , the Rittershof II . The Rittershof I is further down the valley on the L 111 between Hassel and Niederwürzbach .
The Hochscheid is located in a popular local recreation area that is accessed by a premium hiking trail.
