Mathilden Steps

The Mathildenanlage is a section of the route with around 600 steps on which you can climb to the height of Emberg. Very demanding, but definitely recommended. Please wear sturdy shoes!

The staircase and sandstone benches are harmoniously integrated into the forest. About 600 steps you reach the height of Emberg after some effort. On the way you also pass impressive federal sandstone formations.

- also called the "Mathildenstaffeln".
