Tripoint Monument (Germany–Austria–Czech Republic)

Highlight • Monument

The border triangle has a very special flair. With a few steps you can cross the respective border and "get a foothold" in Germany, the Czech Republic or Austria.

If you want to take a break and have a snack, you can do so on the huge stone table.

Teufelsschüssel Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

The rock castle with the devil's bowls is impressive. As you climb up, you can see bowl-like depressions on the rock that are constantly filled with water. There are many interpretations as to how these bowls could have come about. Scientists assume a natural weathering process. According to legend, devils and witches met when the moon was full and performed magic of the most horrid kind. A longer stay brings rest and relaxation. It is a pleasant place to linger and the most powerful place on the path to deceleration.
