Hiking

Impressive rock walls and the rock holes filled with rainwater. One of them, the Wernloch, lies in the center of a fairytale forest, where decay and rebirth are very close together. Dead wood serves as a breeding ground for young trees. Dense flags of moss hang from gnarled branches. A truly eerily romantic and powerful place where we were inclined to forget the world outside and just wallow in fairytale enchantment. And here - with a little imagination - you can even find a dragon face in the rock

The shape of the rock was used well by the "artist". Open your eyes, it's easy to miss.

The Drachenfelsen lies above the two ponds and not in between.
