    Hiking

    On the way to the ridge path on the Rauenstein, it is worth taking the path through this gate. Attention, the path straight ahead through the rocks towards Bärengrund is not possible. You can go a little further and have a nice view towards the Gratweg, but then you just can't go any further. It's better to keep right straight away towards Dreifreundestein.
