Hiking

A great photo motif and special postmark of the HWN. Coming from the direction of Hohegeiß, it can be reached via a great meadow path or you can park directly in Benneckenstein and walk the almost 600m from there.

Hiking

With a little skill, you can also sit on it and look out over the meadows.
