After climbing over an iron ladder, the hiker enjoys a panoramic view over the Hauenstein rock landscape and the town of Hauenstein, magnificent.

The view of Hauenstein is really great, but the ascent as well. The ladder is pretty tight, I hit my back, watch out😉.

Great iron ladder that allows climbing the rocks. If you are at the top, the hiker enjoys a great view

The ladder on the rocks is a special thrill, because the construction is already a bit old.
The steps are very narrow and sometimes even without a backpack it can ever hang on the securing struts.
Should definitely be climbed without a backpack.
The view from the top is worthwhile!

Fascinating view of the lance-driven rock on Hauenstein and surrounding rocks

You should be free from giddiness and surefooted to climb the narrow ladder. Looks a bit older, but makes a stable impression. The view is really beautiful, the climb is worth it!

The ladder is really getting on in years, but everything still felt stable. If you take the backpack forward on your chest, it is definitely less tight than with the backpack on your back. At least that was our experience.
The view from above of Hauenstein is very nice.

Unfortunately, even today, 18/12/2021, access is blocked. I found climbing this ladder a very special experience. Due to the bend in the upper quarter, you step the last kicks in a push-up (at least if you still have a backpack on your back) I hope you leave this special ladder, which also leads to a wonderful view.

The ladder to the top is a bit adventurous ... But the view from the top is great

Today, April 27, 2022, we were able to climb the rock. The ladder is still adventurous but stable.

The ladder up to the rock is locked. I assume that not falcon brood, but a repair is the reason. This ladder was a little "shaky" 1.5 years ago. Hopefully it will be replaced with a new one soon. The view from up there is really beautiful.

A great rock, a climb is worthwhile because you will be rewarded with a great all-round view.

The ladder looks dramatic, making you want to climb it. A simple ladder would be more practical here. But in this "cage" you have to be careful not to get stuck or bump into anything.

The ladder up to the lookout is currently closed. I am assuming that this will finally be renovated. I was there last year and I have to say it was quite a challenge.
