    Mountain biking

    Suddenly quartz rocks rise up almost vertically from the ground. You can climb it or just look at it. They change their appearance depending on the sunlight. Simply a great view and sight. An ideal starting and turning point for mountain bikers. A real highlight.

    Hiking

    Basically the home rock for the climbing scene north of Frankfurt. A good selection of easy to medium difficulty routes.

    Hiking

    For decades, the Eschbacher cliffs have been a well-known and popular destination throughout the Rhine-Main area. Here you can meet walkers, hikers, mountain bikers and families who picnic here.
    In the western part of the rock formation climbs the untrained spontaneous climber and children, the eastern part serves as a practice rock for future professional climbers.
    When climbing there is very danger of falling, especially since the rocks are partly smooth polished by strong inspection, but I know of no major accident.
    Information board on the eastern edge, seating slightly off to the west of the rocks.
