Granite climbing in an abandoned quarry area, mostly on artificial faces; some natural pinnacles and boulders. Some deep water soloing possible.
While the newly developed climbs have a sport character, most older lines on the natural formations can require trad gear.
Four natural rock formations on top of the Hochstein
The area is protected (Naturschutzgebiet). Climbing is tolerated, keep your impact to a minimum (as you should always do). Bivouacing is not permitted.
Follow A4/E40 east towards Poland. ~ 25 km before Görlitz, take exit 92 at Nieder-Seifersdorf. Via Arnsdorf, follow the road east towards Königshain, where the quarry museum and protection area Königshainer Berge is signposted.
Did you know that you can create an account to record, track and share your climbing ascents? Thousands of climbers are already doing this.
