The pulpit is a multi-peaked mountain in the Bavarian Forest National Park south of the Lusen and the Hohlstein. The area around the pulpit is primarily referred to as the “rocky hiking area”, which is criss-crossed by numerous hiking trails that repeatedly lead past rock formations. However, only the 1,011 meter high Kleine Kanzel a little further west forms a real peak. A stately summit cross with a modest view to the south stands on its striking boulder. The closest village and a good starting point for an ascent is Mauth.
