    The "bottleneck" is just a highlight in "Gießübler Switzerland". There is a lot more. To get there, hike on a nature trail, where information boards are used to inform you about the fauna and flora in this valley. On narrow paths you go to rock formations like the "Schröderfelsen", the
    "Dachsbach pulpit" as well as many isolated rock groups past.
    In general, the whole valley is reminiscent of a Swiss mountain valley in miniature. A visit is really worthwhile. And when Corona is over, you can stop off comfortably in the "Triniusbaude" located directly on the Rennsteig.

      According to legend, if you crawl through the stone once, your wish will come true, provided you keep it to yourself.
      So it's definitely worth it for everyone. You can read the entire legend on the plaque, including a special episode about the former carters. But to read it in full, you have to make the journey here.

        It is an interesting rock formation and a very nice place to rest.
