It's a special insider tip. There you'll find peace, beauty, and relaxation. There's a barbecue area. There are two short paths to get there. Personally, I preferred the lower left path from the information board.

The Felsenweg is a beautiful, varied alternative to the Talweg. In this area, the path leads directly below a striking rock formation.

You walk or drive behind the waterfall. A second one is developing to the right...it is very wet and muddy and slippery. So be careful not to slip
