Description
Despite a few easier routes, this the hard (wo)man crag. A beautiful cave of white, pocketed rock, with less steep walls on the sides. Deep in the forest, so as long as there are leaves on the trees it is shady all day. There's a very large, flat dirt area for hanging out.
Getting There
These directions are mostly taken from the Bandstein crag, as it is the same approach with a few minor differences:
From Nuremberg, drive up to Forchheim and then towards Ebermannstadt. After driving through Ebermannstadt, continue driving down this road to Muggendorf. From Muggendorf, drive through the town and take the road uphill (Dooser Berg). At the intersection at the top of the hill, head left towards Albertshof. You'll see a sign for Doos finally along this road, and then you'll come to a stop sign. Drive straight through and head into Doos. At the next stop sign, take a left. Soon thereafter (a little less than 1 km) you'll see a parking pulloff on your right, you can park here. You can also continue in the same direction and almost immediately park on left in a large dirt lot. From this lot, take the well worn path into the woods for about 5 minutes to the wall.
