Geologists say that the granite lumps in the river bed come from a rock fall. A completely different explanation is given by the Falkenberg knight Kuno, who once again stalked an innocent girl. After all, there was no other way to save herself from the pursuers than with a quick prayer and a courageous leap into the Waldnaab. Suddenly it became very quiet behind her - Knight Kuno, his entourage and horses remained in the river bed, transformed into boulders.

The so-called Butterfaß, rocks that block the course of the Waldnaab and bring it to froth, is one of the many highlights on the riverside path of the Waldnaab from Falkenberg to Neuhaus (stage N03 from Goldsteig). This river valley is a gem of nature and you should take time to enjoy it, there are only a few such unspoiled spots in Germany

Cannot be captured properly with the camera. So take your time and see it with your own eyes.
