The cliff path is a steep descent from Hohenstein. It leads below the cliffs long with fantastic views of the rocks. In rain and snow you should not use it because it can be very smooth.

September 30, 2022,Hohenstein ⛰/ 56. Tour 2022

On the way to Hamelin we still had time for a short tour to Hohenstein.
