    Hiking

    We wanted to go up too. Even the free-standing stairs up took courage to climb. We failed on the last flight of stairs. There are no steps up to about 1.2m and you had to climb. Because everything was wet, we unfortunately turned back, to the left through the forest, because the descent is even more dangerous than the ascent.

    Hiking

    Exciting trail - fun, but very steep and slippery. Ladder is only ajar and not attached.

    So on the small ladder I had to think a little bit about how best to put it down in order to get up and, above all, down. It should be dry by now. But at the top very nice view of the Hohnstein Castle.
