The climbing garden on Kalbenstein has an almost alpine character with its ninety meters steep wall rising up from the Main valley. The landscape at this point in its current form was largely created in 1784 by a rock slide of the limestone rock during a so-called millennium flood on the Main. (geotope.bayern.de)
The "Edelweiß" on the plateau above the via ferrata offers a wonderful panoramic view of Karlstadt, Karlburg and the Main Valley. The vantage point is located in the middle of the Grainberg-Kalbenstein nature reserve, access by bike is possible from the east on the «Rosenholz».
