German Rock
A passage carved into the rock, between stone walls: an unusual stop along the paths of the pass.
The route
What to expect
The German Rock is a narrow passage between two rock faces, with an open window in the wall. It can be reached via a moderately difficult hiking trail (E).
It's a short but evocative stop: bring a flashlight or headlamp if you want to explore the tunnels and mines in the area.
