The perfect break. By the way, you can explore the cave with which Goethe also impressed Frau von Stein. It was probably carved into the rock as a guardhouse in the Middle Ages. Tear yourself up the steep stairs, it's worth it!

Be sure to go all the way to the top and enjoy the view. However, the steps are relatively narrow and steep, so you should be sure-footed. Behind the rock is another small cave, which is also worth seeing.
