In 1880, the Falkenstein was provided with a climbing facility, which lasted until 1922. After that, mountaineering was practiced on Fels and it was not until 1938 that a climbing facility was built again, which existed until 1946. Now there is climbing again. You should enjoy the view to the Lausche.
