The view and chapel make the detour from Rachelweg more than worthwhile. (go in and marvel at the carvings!)

The descent from the summit to the Rachel Chapel is a challenge; sturdy shoes and surefootedness are advisable; parts of the route are path and stream, but the view from the chapel is very worthwhile.
