The Dahn landmark with a vertical rock face over 60m high and a pulpit with a cross. Illuminated at night and visible from afar.

The Hochstein remains one of the most impressive rock formations in the Palatinate, especially since it is less obscured by forest than others. From the top, there is a fantastic view (for climbers).
