シュテルンシュタインの天然記念物・トップ20

It's amazing what nature has come up with here. A must-see if you're in the area 👍. It's pure adventure for the kids. At the beginning and end, the kids can play in the shallow water and come up with new ideas with the sand and fine gravel 😉.

Beautiful hike! Certainly a good tip even in the summer months!

On the west side from the log cabin to the south runs the bank path, which is very rustic and natural. The Goldsteig, a popular long-distance hiking trail, runs from Falkenstein to the Blockhütte on the east side and from the hut on the west side. The surrounding paths are great for walking around.

The table stone is really impressive. Crossing the Naab is easily possible here due to the many boulders in the water. The bank path leads past the rocks, which is why you can look at the table stone from there. Small plants and moss grow on the table.

The Doost nature reserve has become a worthwhile destination for - not just geological - excursions, the fauna and flora can also inspire here. The "Doost" was placed under protection very early on, on October 14, 1937 - making it the oldest nature reserve in the Upper Palatinate.

Round granite blocks lie impressively on top of and next to each other in the Doost. The water of the Girnitzbach rushes beneath them. Popular belief interprets them as the work of giants, and the devil is also brought into play in the legends. In fact, the Doost goes back to a long geological process that began millions of years ago.

A pleasure in every season 🥰

The somewhat hidden Doost nature reserve was placed under protection as early as 1937, making it the oldest protected area in the Upper Palatinate. The word "Doost" is probably derived from the word "tosen" of the Girnitz, the numerous moss-covered granite balls and Pressack granite blocks were washed round by the water and are stacked on top of and next to each other over a length of around 500 meters. Many legends and myths are entwined around this area, the stories can be read on some well-made bronze plaques. The Doost is definitely worth a visit and is second to none!
