Tips
Still a long way from the Wachtküppel, it is almost a bit surprising how the small rock spike appears "just like that" in the landscape. The 705m above sea level guard dome is the remains of a volcanic vent whose surrounding softer rock has weathered away. The harder igneous rock of the vent, on the other hand, was preserved.
