The rock walls rise up around 20 metres from the basalt-like phonolite rock. The steep rock walls are particularly visible on the east side. On the rugged west side there are several entrances that allow sporty hikers to climb up without any problems, even without a rope. But walking around the rock formation, which is over 100 metres long, is also an experience.

Hiking

Rocks, rocks, rocks...
Sometimes towering steeply, sometimes piles of boulders, sometimes scattered throughout the surrounding forest. Simply beautiful!
