    A little above the path, this knight's stone is reminiscent of the old courtyard.
    A small staircase leads to the plateau on which one of the buildings stood.

    Hiking

    This is one of over 300 knight's stones of the Palatinate Forest Association.
    It can hardly be seen from the Geiswiese car park, as it is located on a small plateau to which a steep stone staircase with a wooden railing leads (as long as this staircase does not become larger). This plateau is the remains of a former forest farming settlement, whose fate was closely linked to the “Geisskopferhof” forest settlement (1777 – 1852 on the Geiskopf) further up in the forest.
