The rock is located downstream from the Jochenstein power plant. In the 18th century a chapel was built there with the patron saint of the shipmen - St. John Nepomuk.

"The Jochenstein is a small rock island on German territory near the German-Austrian border. It is part of the pile, a range of quartz rocks in the Bavarian Forest that runs along the Danube edge through Lower Bavaria."

Here you cycle from Austria to Germany - or vice versa. If there were no signage, the cyclists would not notice the boundaries. When the tree has finished eating the sign, there is a Bavarian shield for safety. You can rest on a bench and watch the Danube fly by.

Those who are not satisfied with the beautiful view of the other shore can take the bike ferry to Engelhartszell. There is, for example, the beautiful Engelszell Abbey with the sensory garden to visit.

Stift Engelszell

Highlight • Religious Site

Incorrect terms:
The place is called Engelhartszell,
the monastery Engelszell.
But it can be read on the map.

The way over the lock takes you from Germany to Austria.
But be careful: you have to climb a stairwell with 40 steps on each side. A simple pushing aid for bicycles was installed next to the stairs. It's good if you're not traveling alone, otherwise it can get pretty exhausting.
Opening times: 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. all year round
