    Hiking

    After a steep climb of stairs in the midst of the rocky landscape, you will be rewarded with a beautiful view and fresh forest air.
    The bastion is hidden in a rocky landscape in the immediate vicinity of Thum's market square in the forest, which stretches between Thum and Herold. You can get there through a wooden portal, and then a well-signposted, romantic forest path will take you on.


    Not far from the bastion there is a higher vantage point in the forest, the Georgfelsen, as well as Wettinplatz, a former cemetery of a manor.

    Hiking

    Very nice view from above, although you have to look a little bit for the ascent from Herolder Straße. Usually there are stairs leading up to the rock, but they are closed. Therefore, you should simply follow the path a little further up and then take the hiking trail that comes from above to the lookout rock.
