Sea of rocks

Highlight • Natural Monument

Funny ascent over the rocks, which according to legend the two giants Felshocker and Steinbeißer threw at each other in a dispute. If you are very quiet, you can still hear Felshocker roaring under the stones today.

Peter Grieshammer Shelter at the Felsenmeer

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Upper part of the Felsenmeer with particularly large boulders, including a shelter hut and an information board about stone transport in Roman times.
The rocks are quite impressive.

Lautertal View Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Beautiful refuge but for the sheer trees you have no chance to see something from the Lautertal

Siegfried's Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

The actual source, which is called Siegfried's source, is not located at the source at the foot of the Felsenmeer, but higher up, at the level of the giant column at the so-called "Kleinen Felsenmeer".

The spring is named after the hero Siegfried from the Nibelungenlied. However, it is not clear why this source was named after him. As with the many Siegfried fountains in the region, one can only speculate here as to whether this is the spot where Hagen's famous murder of the hero Siegfried was committed.
