The Rocking Stone, also called Wackelstein, can be found in a small forest on the trail between Voitmannsdorf and Neuhaus. Without local knowledge, anyone would walk past the boulder without seeing it. If you try to bring the boulder with great force in any fluctuation, you can not register the slightest movement. However, if you look at the iron cross that is placed on top of the rock massif, you suddenly notice quite clearly that the crucifix sways back and forth, and that even by several centimeters.

a very interesting place for a rock with a cross. Discovered by accident thanks to Komoot. A trip there is actually a must.
