Rahmhanke Path with View of the Elbe

Highlight • Climb

The Rahm-Hanke (often also Rahmhanke) is designated as climbing access way in 230 - 250 m height ü. NN, which runs below the bastion between Tiedge stone (also Rosenbettfels) and Wartturm. It requires absolute freedom from giddiness and surefootedness.

Honigsteingratweg

Highlight • Trail

The heart smiles on the Honigsteingratweg: some easy climbing, some exposed paths on the rocks, not too difficult. Great views there at the Maiturm on the small and large goose panorama. - Sturdy shoes, sure-footedness and no fear needed ;-)

September 25, 2022,Stiegentour rund um Rathen

From Rathen, our tour led uphill to the right on the Jungfernsteig to the valley guard, then past the Türkenkopf to the Honigsteinrücken. The heart smiles on the Honigsteingratweg: some easy climbing, some exposed paths on the rocks, not too difficult. Great views awaited us at the Maiturm on the small and large goose panorama. Before that we rewarded ourselves …

But it's always really nice there! 😄
Today we went over the Rahmhanke to the monk. Since we started walking at 8 a.m., it was surprisingly empty there. So we had the sun-drenched forest with its birdsong to ourselves. Incidentally, it has been scientifically proven that birdsong has a relaxing effect …
