The 525-metre-high plateau can be reached via narrow forest paths.The spot is ideal for a rest and offers a sweeping view of the opposite rock towers of the Bielatal, both on the German and Czech sides.

The view of the Hoher Schneeberg, the highest peak in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, is particularly striking. The wooded mountain ranges and deeply carved valleys in the surrounding area can also be clearly seen.
