Rock Shelter in Naturpark Fichtelgebirge

Highlight • Natural Monument

Fascinating rock formation. A ledge provides a kind of shelter. It's cool here in the summer and when it rains you're sheltered.

March 20, 2025,Von Weißenstadt über Rudolfstein und den Drei-Brüder-Felsen zum Gipfel des Schneeberg

The tour, which I stole from @Söhni 🏃 (as expected, he perfectly planned and commented on it 😊👍👍👍), starts at the cemetery parking lot in Weißenstadt. Directly behind the cemetery, the route winds its way through the 18th-century rock cellars. There are 130 of them here alone, although they are now mostly unused and serve as shelter for bats 🦇.

January 13, 2025,Weißenstadt - Rudolfstein – Drei-Brüder-Felsen - Schneeberg ❄️

Sunshine was forecast for today and I wanted to go on another snow hike to the roof of Franconia, the summit of the Schneeberg at 1,051 meters. At first the sky was still very cloudy, but the clouds gradually cleared as the hike progressed, so that I was able to experience a true winter dream on the summit plateau of …

September 17, 2023,Felsen am Rudolfstein und Aussicht am Schneeberg

It started at Weißenstädter See.
The first destination was the Kreuzfelsen on the Rudolfstein. Even if it doesn't seem like it at first, it's relatively easy to get up the Kreuzfelsen. However, the prerequisite is a head for heights and surefootedness. Technically, the climb is not particularly difficult, …

August 22, 2024,Schneeberg - Rudolphstein

Today we didn't do the standard tour to Schneeberg, but rather a quieter route. The stretch of asphalt just before the summit was strenuous.
The view from the Backöfele went far across the countryside, and the Weißenstädter See was also visible. We went back via the Drei Brüder and the Rudolphstein to the starting point.
A beautiful circuit that was …
