Tips

January 2, 2020

Hiking

The Lehnsteig is a great ascent / descent for hikes in the Schmilka area. The Great Winter Mountain can also be reached quickly via it. Caution sure-footedness is required.

Hiking

A charming staircase and a beautiful alternative to the wide, gravelly, root-covered path. For the most part, you simply climb a few wooden steps, with towering sandstone cliffs rising up on both sides in a wild and romantic fashion. The upper entrance/exit of the staircase offers a bit of variety, requiring the ascent of relatively steep stone steps. All the paths leading to climbing crags and viewpoints branch off from the staircase itself.

Hiking

The Lehnsteig branches off to the left of the root path. In the upper part the Lehnsteig becomes quite steep. It is highly recommended as an alternative to the root path.
