켐나스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪15‬개의 산 정상

The Rauhe Kulm rises 682 metres high from the middle of the landscape and is visible from all directions. It is surrounded by the Fichtel Mountains to the north, the Steinwald to the east, the heights of the Franconian Jura to the south and the Franconian Switzerland to the west. It owes its striking shape to its volcanic origins around 20 million years ago. The exposed basalt slopes are a valuable habitat for numerous animals and rare plants. Around 90 different lichens and mosses grow and thrive on the heat-storing basalt boulders. The Rauhe Kulm has been protected as a natural monument since 1909 and has been a nature reserve in accordance with European standards (FFH) for several years. In 2013, the Rauhe Kulm was voted Germany's most beautiful natural wonder.

Beautiful little rock formation in the middle of the forest at 941m altitude.

At the end of the tour this beautiful rock formation awaits you. A very special climbing experience for children. Please remember to wear sturdy shoes

According to legend, the giants who lived here placed their cats' troughs here. The Katzentrögel used to be the most popular excursion destination in the Steinwald as a viewing platform. This changed with the construction of the Upper Palatinate Tower. Today, stairs and directions have been removed for environmental reasons.
