Lourdes Grotto, Höchstberg

Highlight • Religious Site

The natural staircase to the Lourdes Grotto in Höchstberg is a picturesque yet challenging path that leads pilgrims and hikers to the grotto. This staircase consists of 256 slippery and varied natural steps that lead through the forest down into the Tiefenbach valley. The path is particularly challenging in wet weather as the steps can be slippery.

The atonement stone and the wayside cross in Höchstberg are like two old friends who have stood at the same crossroads for centuries and tell stories from times long past. The atonement stone, a silent witness from the 15th/16th century, has seen and heard many things. It stands there as if it were keeping the secrets of the past, while the wayside cross from 1748 keeps it company.

Well, it's a bit of an exaggeration to call this a waterfall. But it's still beautiful and idyllic.
