The duck stone is only about 100m away from the hikers' car park. Nice, small indoor cave with seating area, good when it rains. The duck stone is also a climbing rock with various difficulties.

This time I was drawn back to the "Franconian", namely to Pottenstein. Even if the weather wasn't as ⛅️ sunny as predicted, it was a nice loop through a wonderful landscape. First I explored the devil's cave for the visit with my girls, and then I made my way through the beautiful Klumpertal and the rocky world of the Jägersteig. …

June 2, 2023,FS🇨🇭 Slalomtour durchs Klumpertal mit Jägersteig 1+2☀️

Beautiful afternoon tour through the Klumpertal and on the Jägersteige 1+2 with root paths and bizarre rock formations. And all this in the best hiking weather with sunshine, light wind and not so hot temperatures.

It's shady on the stairs. The upper trail (2) is more varied, but the view of the valley is better on the lower trail.
