    Hiking

    The inconspicuous rocks of Elwetrische Horst barely rise above the surrounding pines. The front rock can be climbed over two smaller steps on the east side. Caution, no security, only for experienced users! between the two rocks there is a small cave where you can also spend the night. Only path tracks lead there and no marked paths.

    Hiking

    The best way to get there is via an unmapped trail that branches off to the right from the "black" side trail on the hiking map. Follow this path to the left along the rock chain and you will come to a beautiful "rock gate" as well as to almost a kind of rock arena.
