    Hiking

    Please note that rock climbing is prohibited from February 1 to June 15 to protect endangered species and their offspring.

    Outside of these times, camping or spending the night outdoors is generally prohibited in the national park. Only if this is directly related to climbing and the conservation purpose of the national park is it permitted to spend the night outdoors at the 58 designated rock climbing sites.

    The Kanstein next to the Großer Teichstein has a plateau halfway up and offers a fantastic view of the Großer Teichstein and the entire surrounding area.
