    Hiking

    A narrow staircase leads up to the Gernerfels. The climb is worth it, because above you can expect a great view of Gößweinstein. With the castle and the magnificent basilica, the small town looks like the backdrop for a fairytale film.

    Hiking

    Beautiful vantage point, the "platform" of which can be reached via a narrow path. Here you have a beautiful view of the basilica and Gößweinstein.
