Cross rocks

Highlight • Summit

The Kreuzfelsen is 999 meters high and part of the elongated Kaitersberg. On the rocky summit is a huge summit cross including summit book. From here you have a very good view of Bad Kötzting and the front Bavarian Forest.

Mittagstein War Memorial Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The site features a chapel with memorial stone and cross for the fallen of the wars. Nice vantage point. View at the Kreuzfelsen but many times better.
