    Hiking

    The Oberwegsteine (Czech: Horní Skaly or Obrvégry) are a group of rocks near the Horní Sedlo (pass). They are located on the southern slope of the Hřebeny mountain, about 500 meters above sea level. The rock group consists of eight individually standing sandstone rocks.
    The most important towers are the Great Goddess of Death (Velká Smrtka, also known as the Great Dead Stone) and the Reichenberg Tower (Liberecká věž). Like the neighboring Rabensteine, the Oberwegsteine are one of the most important climbing destinations in the Bohemian part of the Lusatian Mountains.

    Hiking

    The Oberwegsteine are fabulous, solitary sandstone towers with fairytale names (Dragon's Tooth, etc.) that challenge local climbers. Great to look at!
