Hiking

The Walfischkopf rock group, also known as the frog, is a real insider tip. Viewed from the side, the rocks look like a frog ready to jump. To the left under the frog is the whale's head, which for my part looks more like a dolphin. This group of rocks used to be a popular viewpoint over the area around Schönheide. In the meantime completely overgrown, "thanks" to the glorious windbreak of 2017 you can look in almost all directions again ...
