This natural monument is probably the best-known cult stone in the country. The site is located at the edge of the forest, benches are available for resting.
This family-friendly hike - mostly with shaded forest sections - starts in the town center of Kopfing passing the treetop path, the Wildererstöckl in Grafendorf to the former entrenchments in Dornedt. From Dornedt it is only a few minutes to the Jungfraunstein - a two-meter-high rocking stone that can be moved with little force. Around the Jungfraunstein, larger stones are grouped. According to legend, giants - virgins brought the stone here. Afterwards, the route leads past the Fliegerkreuz - a memorial site, over Rasdorf, Matzelsdorf to Glatzing. After about 200m you reach the Rupertusstein, where Saint Rupertus left his footprints.
