Devil's Bridge on the Gleitsch

Highlight • Natural Monument

Nice hiking destination high above the valley. Nice photo opportunity and also a wide view from the cliff in the valley. But see yourself, there is a risk of collapse.

Schwedenschanze Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

These are "the same Swedes" as in Erfurt ;-). It is a graceful place on this meadow plateau, you can let your gaze wander into the distance all around and you will always discover something new.
