    Hiking

    The Hörnlastein is a striking rock in a beautiful side valley near Königsfeld. Its name is derived from the "horn", which rises like the top of a rhinoceros above the rock massif to the sky. The rock is especially popular with climbers.

    Hiking

    The Hörnlastein is from Königsfeld direction Treunitz right after the exit. You can park your car at the top of the main road to the dirt road. It is a good starting point for a tour.
    In the quiet location there you can also take a break. You can walk around the rock massif to Hörnla.
    The rock is also very popular with climbers.
