    "Helfenstein" is a huge sandstone rock, on which once a smaller castle stood, which probably belonged to the castle Falkenstein.

    Climbing the rock is possible, but very dangerous!

      A detour only makes sense, since the Helfenstein is not far from the path or you want to visit all the castles, but there is nothing to see except a solid rock massif and sandstone steps carved out of the rock.

        Magnificent site, with rocks as surprising as each other. It is also a spot for rock climbing.
