The impressive 40-meter-high rock formation is one of the most remarkable natural and cultural monuments in Central Europe. From here you have a particularly beautiful view of the rocks and, with the right light, it makes a wonderful postcard motif.

From here you have a great view of the stones. When the weather is good, they are wonderfully reflected in the lake
