The Falkenstein is considered THE climbing hotspot in Thuringia. From the viewing point a little above you can watch the climbers and enjoy the view.

Hiking

The Falkenstein is a climbing rock that was withheld from us hikers. Coming from the mountain guard hut, you can walk at the foot of the Falkenstein over a path to the neighboring rock and from there you have a great view of the Falkenstein's cross.
