The Rose Stones are a group of pink sandstones. They include the approximately 30 meter high Jubilee Tower, the Ant Tower, the Elephant Head and the 23 meter high Polar Bear. A little further up, the path leads through the forest gate between the 30-metre-high tower of the forest gate keeper and the 35-metre-high rock of the Hoher Rosenstein. In the upper part of the group are the rose stump, the rose peak and the 30 meter high main rose stone.

Further rock groups with the Hauptrosenstein, rose stump, high Rosenstein, elephant head and Eisbär follow on the hiking trail. They also fascinate by their size and shape.
