    Hiking

    Directly above the hiking trail rise the striking rocks of Morscher Zinne, Falscher Zinne, Kreuzturm and Bloßstock. The towering rock formations are a popular climbing area.

    Hiking

    Great rocks and the bare stick as a rock needle is easy to see from many views.

    Hiking

    The Bloßstock (also Bloszstock) is a distinctive rock and climbing peak in the monkey stones in Saxon Switzerland. It forms the northernmost elevation of the monkey stones and is separated by a deep ridge from the south adjoining cross tower and the adjoining rocky outcrop of the Long Horn. The 90-meter-high north face drops almost vertically, making it a highly visible landmark in the rear Saxon Switzerland and is described as one of the most imposing rock towers in the area. Wikipedia
