Hiking

What a mystical place. Is it just the name or the calm atmosphere of the place? You have probably not met witches here, but there are some legends about this rock formation with the striking wide gap in the rock.

The path from Lanzenhain via the Burgfrieden to the Hexenstein is a beautiful whole, although the first part of the path was unfortunately plowed to pieces by harvesters.
