The Wartstein is a beautiful vantage point at a height of 983 m above sea level. This means that it is only 104 m above the Hintersee, which can also be seen wonderfully from the vantage point. There is also a beautiful view towards Watzmann and Ramsau, as well as into the side valleys.
On the side summit there is a war memorial for the citizens of Ramsau who died or went missing in the First World War. The memorial in the form of a pyramid was built from boulders by the returning war veterans.
Just below the summit is the Magdalene Grotto. The small cave is located below the side summit at a height of around 870 meters and can be reached via a signposted short, narrow path.
