    Wonderful view from the Bastei or the Zankelstein into the Pegnitz valley or to Pommelsbrunn and the Högenbachtal up to Reckenberg.

      On the south and southeast side of the Zankelstein, three rock towers rise out of the forest, serving as popular lookout cliffs. The rock group is 20 meters long, as wide and 30 meters high. The rock towers offer views over the Pegnitz and Högenbachtal valleys.

        Fantastic view!
        Two great pallet furniture at the highest point invite you to sunbathe.
        Open eyes ! Could be that there is something to write :-).
