The Großer Lochstein is probably one of the most impressive rock formations in the Veldensteiner Forest area. The imposing rock tower is crossed at the base by a passage cave about ten meters long. It has been designated by the Bavarian State Office for the Environment as an important geotope (geotope number: 472R086) and as a natural monument. It is also number 49 in the list of Bavaria's most beautiful geotopes: lfu.bayern.de/geologie/bayerns_schoenste_geotope/49/index.htm.
