An ancient bridge, built of granite blocks, crosses the Haidenaab River near Steinfels. The castle and its chapel are also worth seeing; gravel and sand mining created a lake landscape.

The last 500 meters or so up to Rabenleite are almost a straight climb through the forest. Initially, a steep carpet of roots, then the climb is easy, especially with an electric power amplifier. The descent is a thrilling downhill!
