Hiking

Discovered by chance, opposite the Stone Lions you can sit down on a stone bench carved out of the rock and enjoy the view of the 🦁 while taking a break.

The origin of the stone lion is still unclear. It was first mentioned in 1885 in Täubert's travel guide.

Easy to miss when climbing up to the southern lookout (transmission tower) after the first ladder at the transition to the second ladder on the right. When descending from the transmission mast, of course, then turn left. 😉 Great unique photo motif.
