                    The observation tower is located directly on the Pfaffenstein, which is accessible and should definitely be used, the view is worth the effort.

                        A hike to the Pfaffenstein is definitely worthwhile, whether for hiking or climbing, with the children or the dog there is something for everyone here, whether young or old. Many paths, many routes. Just great. On weekends it can be a bit crowded in some places!
