The climb to the rock is worthwhile. From the top, you have a fantastic view of the town and the surrounding area.

A remarkable stone located right next to the road. Access is easy and possible at any time.

The rock is 5 m high, 7 m long and 3 m wide. It is a leaning granite block in the shape of a wobbly stone. The following story is told in town: When a company of French soldiers were quartered in Bad Traunstein in 1809, the soldiers made fun of the huge, but apparently only lightly resting block of stone. They made a bet with the population to collapse the block into the meadow. But the wobbly stone didn't move an inch. The French left in anger. From then on, the wobbly stone was called the “French stone”.

Approx. 500 m long section of the Kleiner Kamp - around 3 km above Rappottenstein. This is covered with a lot of granite blocks, which come from the mountains of the Bohemian Massif and got their shape through the so-called wool sack weathering - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wollsackverwitterung.

A wide forest path leads along the Kleiner Kamp, which flows through the forest below the Rapottenstein Castle, which is well worth seeing.

Cool off briefly and enjoy the sun with a view of the dense forest: The Waldbad Rappottenstein consists of an artificial pond with a maximum depth of two and a half meters, wide sunbathing areas, a children's playground, sanitary facilities and a buffet. The pool is open daily from May to September. More information is available at https://www.rappottenstein.at/Tourismus_Kultur/Aktiv/Waldbad.

From 980 m above sea level you can enjoy a wonderful view. So the climb is worth it. Attention, the last piece needs some "climbing resistance" and cannot be done by everyone. Good shoes are an advantage on the large, smooth stone blocks.

As skewed as the Franzosenstein lies, you could almost think that it falls over at any moment. But it doesn't happen that quickly. Even around a hundred French soldiers are said to have failed to move the stone. So they lost a bet against the Traunsteiners and at the same time gave the stone its name.
