Across the Höllbachgespreng towards Großer Falkenstein

On the demanding tour to Großer Falkenstein (1315 meters above sea level), the path leads us up through the Höllbachgespreng, a romantic landscape with a number of small waterfalls and pristine mixed mountain forest. At the Falkenstein summit, we have a breathtaking view. Right below, one can have a break at Falkenstein shelter. The descent leads us across the Ruckowitzschachten and pristine forest area of Mittelsteighütte.

Note:
In spring, a trail closure in Höllbachgespreng due to the nesting of peregrine falcons may be possible. In this case, please use the marked detour.
