Brilliant climb 😎

Nothing for beginners!

One of the most beautiful and varied stairs in Saxon Switzerland 👍

Definitely one of the most exciting stairs in Saxon Switzerland, as you have to climb freely for the first four meters to the first iron bracket. Here every step and grip needs to be carefully considered.

However, the closer you get to the first iron bracket, the better your grips and kicks become. Once you've done that, it's just a lot of fun! You should have some water with you to refuel. The backpack is quite annoying in the narrow places.

But it works. Compared to the Häntzschelstiege, you have to use your hands more on the rock, there is less iron, there is no wire rope and it is a little more physically demanding, but it is a huge fun factor for climbing enthusiasts.

When you get to the top, you'll just be amazed at the height difference you've overcome using your arms in such a short time.

And yes, it's true, the experience: it's like giving birth🤩
