Hiking
To reach the rock, however, you must be very fit and climb extremely steeply up the slope for about 30 m.
The small cave in the rock is worth seeing and lends the place a special atmosphere – at the same time, it makes you shudder due to the tragic events that are said to have taken place there according to the local chronicle.
