Fuchskanzel Viewpoint and Royal Saxon Triangulation Station

Highlight • Viewpoint

Those who choose the path from the Czech Republic should have staying power, the views and the historic stone will compensate.

Hufeisenstein (Podkova) Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

15 m high sandstone rock horseshoe stone (Podkova), which resembles a head with helmet remotely. This overhanging rock tower, with its jagged summit, was probably named after some horseshoe recesses …

Through the gate it is nicer than on the gravel road, unfortunately only a short way.

July 27, 2022,Popova skála (Pfaffenstein) – Blick zum Hochwald Runde von Luftkurort Lückendorf

A great tour over some challenging stretches. Sure-footedness, sturdy shoes and a good level of fitness are required. Not recommended for small children, as it is sometimes steeper uphill or downhill over hill and dale. Several great vantage points, including the opportunity to make an entry in the summit book at the "Kohouti" mountain. Our pure hiking time was ~ …

A varied and scenic hike starting from the parking lot at the Old Forester's House in Lückendorf, between Germany and the Czech Republic. Exceptional panoramic views can be enjoyed from the Fuchskanzel (Germany) and Pfaffenstein (Czech Republic) vantage points.

Beautiful hike through partly forested areas, but also with beautiful hiking trails.
And the Pfaffenstein, always a recommendation!

Easy circular hike, at the beginning and end on wide forest paths with little view. The climb is a bit strenuous though.

I set off with great anticipation, but no exact idea of what to expect on this tour. And in the end I can say I was very impressed and happy when I reached the finish line. It was incredibly varied and very peaceful; enjoyment was absolutely the priority. I walked through dense forest to the first viewpoint, Hahnstein, with views …
