Very hidden in the forest and only known to a few hikers and climbers, these rock needles stand in the forest behind the Gerstberger Kopf. A path leads up to the Gerstberger head on which there are also remains of an earlier Celtic ring wall. This, however, also totally overgrown and hardly findable.

Hiking

The Rabensteine as a whole consist of four (climbing) rocks (from east to west):
Rabentürmchen
Häherfels
Falk(-enstein)
Taub(-enstein).
The Falk is often closed to rock climbers because of the falcon breeding season

Hiking

A beautiful unmarked path goes right under the two mighty towering rocks. Very lonely. But really impressive rock formations. If you want, you can also make a short detour to the vantage point above the Neudahn business park with a beautiful photo of the Neudahn castle ruins. Two further vantage points (Galgenfelsen, Bubenfelsen) are right next to the wide forest path and are also worthwhile destinations.
