    Top of the giant mountain. Very worth seeing even if you have to fight your way through the bushes for about 200 m, as there is no direct path

      the Riesenberg about 2km west of the Auersberg forested summit with striking granite stone formation which reminds either of an old castle or a giant. Everyone can interpret that by themselves. Access difficult due to storm and bark beetle. nevertheless a worthwhile goal. Namesake of the nearby guest house "Riesenberger houses". There especially the specialty "Schieböcker" enjoy. But you have to like cumin.

        Circular route either from the dam Sosa Auersberg and Riesenberg with rest in the Riesenberger houses, wonderful day trip.
