Well, there's no official bivouac site at Papststein. It would be rather pointless anyway, since the few climbing peaks are reachable within minutes. However, the rock shelter on the path to Hunskirche appears to be used for overnight stays.

When it rains the rocks can become quite slippery. Pack good shoes and, if necessary, hiking sticks.
