Hiking

The big pig stone is really a huge red sandstone massif. The height of the rock is about 43 meters and on average 18 meters. First you walk up to the roof of the big piglet rock. Then you go back a bit and descend before the rock on the right side down a path. And when you stand in front of it and look up the rock face, you see, a huge wall that has just been cut down ... Here's a break ...

Hiking

Due to the tall trees, you only have a small view from the stone.
