Rudolfstein Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

Magnificent view of the Weissenstädter See, for which you have to climb up a staircase in advance. You can safely leave the bike underneath.

The Three Brothers Rocks on Rudolfstein are an impressive demonstration of the power of nature. Through weathering, the granite masses have been finely honed over millennia and are now forming a work of art that often reminds of stacked mattresses. So get out of bed and marvel at mattress weathering in reality.

The weather forecast had promised a little sun for today. So we went out into the fresh air. A hike to the Rudolfstein was our goal. This rock formation had already caught our interest some time ago, and a wonderful walk from Weißenstadt took us to the rock in question. After a small picnic, we also passed the Three Brothers …
