    Hiking

    The heart stone is a so-called slip-through stone, and its appearance immediately reminds one of a standing human heart. The heart stone is supposedly a female double cult site, as slipping through is said to promote fertility, but also serves to cast off illness, suffering, evil and sin.

    This huge rock is shaped like a heart. It balances upside down on another stone that serves as a base.
