Mushroom rock in Silberhartschlag

Highlight • Natural Monument

Granite (wool sack) weathering in the form of an oversized mushroom. I can easily stand upright under the hat.

Sternstein Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The so-called "Kaiser Franz Joseph Jubiläumswarte" was built in 1898/99 and nowadays offers its visitors an amazing view. You can see the Böhmerland to Schöninger, the 1,111 meter high Viehberg near Sandl in the east and the Breitenstein in the south to the Ameisberg in the west. If the view is particularly clear, the chain of the northern limestone Alps from the Schneeberg to the Untersberg ski area near Gutenstein opens up on the horizon from southeast to southwest.

But be careful: For safety reasons, the control room is closed in the winter months (November to March).
