      The Hurkutstein lies between the Waldschlösschen Academy and the Jägersteinen. Is signposted. Very idyllic location. Well worth the visit, especially with children who are amazed to hear the story.

        Legend has it that a farmhand abandoned a child in the forest and, out of regret, became a hermit here.
