The view is now somewhat overgrown, but "Franz von Asisi" and a real summit cross await!
Below the summit, there is a nice, stable bench between the rocks where you can rest.

Hiking
The summit of the Hoher Sachse is formed by a summit cliff of granitic-granodioritic dark diatexites with large potassium feldspar crystals with almost vertical walls. Below, a block field follows. The current morphology is the result of Pleistocene erosion, during which the Tertiary weathering crust was removed and more compact rock sections were exposed. The rock cliffs and blocks are consistently overgrown. Bavarian State Office for the Environment (LfU).
