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

      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.

        You feel so small on the sofa, and there is something adventurous about climbing on the sofa 😅.
        The red sofa was a prop from a play. Since it was too good to throw away, it was made available to the public and wrapped in red sheet metal. There is an HWN stamp behind it.
