The "Pferdeloch" (Horse Hole) is a narrow and deep gorge formed by a landslide. During the Thirty Years' War, the local population hid their livestock here from plundering soldiers. The viewpoint above the Pferdeloch, at an altitude of approximately 470 meters, offers a view of Hitzelrode and the Hohestein mountain.

The path leads through an old quarry. Those coming down the path from the castle should wear sturdy shoes. It's quite steep, and the very muddy path is not recommended in wet conditions. However, the quarry is quite easy to navigate.

Just walking through the Dohlbach Valley is a wonderful hiking experience. There are also charming views of greywacke rocks, especially a quarry. An information board in front of it explains the geological history in detail.

If you hike the P16 from the Altenstein castle ruins down to Sickenberg, you will reach this large Bundsandstein formation in the adjacent forest. You walk right past it.

The beautiful juniper heath on species-rich grassland areas with wonderfully bizarre gypsum and dolomite rocks and numerous sinkholes is an absolute dream landscape! A unique karst area, fascinatingly formed by countless large and small, shallow or deep collapses. Add to that the fantastic autumn colors, we are totally thrilled 🤩👍

Very nice place for worship.

very nicely laid out and maintained

A really very interesting area. Rocks rise up from grassland full of rare plants. Old juniper bushes also grow here. And the hiking trail often leads directly past the sinkholes.
