The summit cross belongs to the Osterlochfelsen and this to the rock massif Hainsburg, which drops steeply up to 20 meters. There are several small karst openings as well as the karst cave in Osterloch. Vertical gaps divide the rock face into several sections. The Osterlochfelsen can be reached via a marked hiking trail. At the cross there is also a table with benches to take a break. You should be sure-footed even though steps were carved into the rock. Length of the rock about 220m with a width of 50m. Natural monument number 371R005 of the list of geotopes in the district of Amberg-Sulzbach. umweltatlas.bayern.de/mapapps/resources/reports/geotope/generateBericht.pdf?additionallayerfieldvalue=371R005

Summit cross at the beginning of the path to Hainsburg. Nice short climb on rocky path. Then a leisurely forest path through light beech forest towards Osterloch, Bettelküche and Teufelskanzel. Recommended for old and young 🙂

At the top of the summit cross, there is also a seating area to make a snack.
