Baltic Sea feeling comes up here, the path leads to the Holy Stairs.

Hiking

The Herringgrund is a broad valley, which is easy to walk. A well-developed but partly still natural path leads through it and connects directly to the Holy Stairs. The herring ground is a dream in terms of landscape.

Hiking

the dying forest opens up new views of the rocky landscape. Nevertheless, let's hope that a natural forest stand will be able to form again one day.
