I can highly recommend the “Wild Hell”. It is surprising that there is no sign at the beginning of the gorge about the difficulty. Without appropriate footwear, nothing can be …

Clockwise around the Frienstein, some climbing through a cave, a 50 cm wide, exposed path with handles - you're there.

Great tour 👍
You should be fit for the route and have enough to drink with you! It's not a walk in the park!
You have a unique view.

A very beautiful hike. Also possible with experienced mountain dogs, if you know your dog and can handle it. 😎. There was also a large, visibly unfrequented section, so there were few tourists...

Magical round trip with many highlights. 🎉

Hike in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. Which route to take? I came across the "Wilde Hölle" via Komoot. Okay, sounds cool, difficulty level is difficult, surefootedness is required, but no special mountaineering experience is required. Yeah, I'll do it!
What did I get? A breathtaking hike. Initially flat along a small stream, it soon becomes a steady climb. Impressive rock …

I followed the Flößersteig along the Kirnitzsch to the Beuthenfall.
From here we went up the mountain, past Bloßstock, towards Wilde Hölle.
Then I climbed up the Wilde Hölle with a firm step and, once at the top, took a quick detour to the Carola …

The actual Malerweg trail, with its fourth stage, leads from the Kuhstall over the Winterberg and, apart from the first stage, offers mostly boring, unspectacular forest paths.
We therefore completely changed the tour due to the perfect weather. The first section was a tough climb up the Wilde Hölle, followed by a short detour to the beautiful Carolafelsen.
Over narrow …
