    Hiking

    Walkable rock above Tröbsdorf and Bibertal, whose name derives from a devil's saga that can be read at the foot of the rock. The devil has been artistically immortalized here twice and there is a small seating area to rest at the entrance to the rock plateau.

    Hiking

    At the foot of the Teufelskanzel there is a plaque with the associated legend. Again, it was about a bet between the devil and a farmer, the region that the devil lost and threw this rock out of anger. This is very reminiscent of the legend of the Harz Devil's Wall.

    Hiking

    Even the single trail to the pulpit is a highlight, albeit well maintained.
    The Teufelskanzel itself is a sandstone formation above Tröbsdorf.
    As with many Teufels legends, the reaper was snipped, but we know that in the end he wins.
    Worth mentioning are the 2 devil faces in the rock.
