A rock popular with climbers, which can be found east of Steinensittenbach a bit off the path. A notice draws your attention to this. The 15 meter high limestone cliff got its unusual name from the Rifflerbuben from Nuremberg, who opened up many climbing areas in the area at the beginning of the 20th century. They first climbed the Bolzenstein in 1905 by shooting a bolt over the stone with a crossbow. They could rise from it.

A beautiful tower with a height of about 10-12 meters. It gets its name from the first ascent in 1905, when a string was shot over the tower with the bolt of a crossbow and carried a climbing rope to the summit. Zone 2 category = no new climbing routes
