Kreuzberg Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

At the end of the tour, I advise everyone to stop by the monastery to enjoy a delicious meal with a large beer. You can also buy beer there to take home.

The steps up to Kreuzberg

Highlight • Trail

The view at the 3 crosses is unbeatable. It is best to spend the night in the monastery, then you can also take excellent sunset pictures in good weather conditions.
