Mountaineering

The Stephanshöhe is one of 14 8000m peaks near the idyllic village of Schellerhau. However, the stamping point is a little further away from the actual height at a beautifully furnished vantage point with a summit book.

Beautiful place with a great view. The sea of stones at Stephanshöhe is a station on the 14x8000 and was probably also the devil's place of refuge, according to the story on the information board.

The Stephanshöhe is one of the eight-thousanders in the Ore Mountains. You will need to bring an ink pad or pencil with you to the stamp office. A bench invites you to take a break.
