    Hiking

    Steep giant rocks rise right next to the Netzbach - and a wobbly stone balances on one of them. Anyone who wants to move it needs enormous (devil?) powers!

    The Wackelstein rests only on a small, down-facing Auflagefäche. As a final phase of Wollsackveritterung form in granite areas again and again such Wackelsteine. Sometimes these stones can be moved by hand or with a lever. Often, as well as here, the name but rather for the shaky construction.

    Mountain biking

    After a short ascent you reach the Wackelstein, which rests only on a small, downhill-facing surface. However, you cannot move the huge stone 😉.
