Hiking

Stone men along the way to the Ochsenkopf are always a pleasure to look at and a great photo opportunity

Hiking

On the way to the Ochsenkopf, hikers have piled up several stone cairns on a rock. The small towers of stacked stones give the rock a very special character: a short photo stop along the way.

Except for the stone turrets, the place offers nothing, even the view is very limited.
