Knopfstein (Bärnfels Mushroom)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The "button stone" is also called "Bärnfelser Pilz" and is an extraordinary rock formation near Bärnfels. The shape is reminiscent of a trouser button and was created by the weathering of the various layers of rock.

Bärnfels Castle Ruins and Viewpoint

Highlight • Castle

For Bärenfels you should definitely make a detour, as here offers a great view. The foundations give an idea of how the castle was once built into the rock.
