Attention forest trail hikers! If you are faced with the choice of going right or left here in front of the rock, choose the right one. This is the correct continuation of the Forststeig.

Before you continue, however, it is worth climbing the stone staircase and iron steps, because the view over the Columns of Hercules is breathtaking.

A beautiful vantage point with a view of the Pillars of Hercules.
There are also some climbing rocks on the plateau 😎

The view "Johanniswacht" can be reached via stone steps and a short iron lattice staircase - and can be mastered well for vertiginous catfish. However, dogs should stay down (as there is not much room on the observation deck).
