    Hiking

    Surrounded by many mighty beech trees, the Haferdeckfelsen (Oat Deck Rock) towers above the pond. It is one of the popular rock formations around Friedenfels and is easily accessible via the Steinwald Cycle Path. Those wishing to hike to the rock can take the Goldsteig Trail or the Friedenfels "blue" circular hiking trail from the brewery.

    The rock formation is freely accessible.

    A really beautiful trail, and the rock by the lake is stunning.

    You can see it nicely in this video:

    Hiking

    Beautiful narrow path along the slope to the Hainbach stream. Don't miss the turnoff to the path.
