From here you have a beautiful view of Saxon Switzerland. A small seating area is available and invites you to linger. On a display board you can see exactly which mountains or elevations are in front of you.

Hiking

From the Grundmühle Hohnstein, a signposted path takes about 20 minutes to reach the Waitzdorferhöhe, 414 m above sea level. M. and can enjoy an almost 270° all-round view. A bench invites you to a picnic.
The next rest stop is in Waitzdorf, about 15 minutes away - the Waitzdorfer Schänke.
