Ketzerstein Basalt Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

Out of nowhere they stand there. Natural formation that I have never seen before. Almost as if they were stacked there. Nice to look at with a great panorama in the background.

Fuchskaute Summit (657 m)

Highlight • Summit

It is the highest point in the Westerwald, but unfortunately there is no nice view from here as the highest point is in the middle of the forest.
