Tips

The Viewing Chamber (not to be confused with the Dragon's Cave!) is, as the name suggests, open on two sides (southwest and south/northeast) and lies just a few meters below the South Rock. There is NO railing here (except on the stairs).

You reach the Viewing Chamber from the South Rock via an entrance at the base of a birch tree (which branches into two trunks) and then via a staircase hewn into the rock, which makes a 90-degree turn and has a metal railing at the bottom. A truly special place! One of the rock faces down here looks like a dragon's face!

First you have to find the entrance, which is quite well hidden. Down the stairs you will find the exciting dragon window. If you look closely you will also see the dragon.
