Falkenfelsen, Rock formation in Bühl, Germany

The Falkenfelsen is a granite rock formation that rises about 200 feet above the surrounding forest and is located in the northern Black Forest region. At its summit are viewing platforms from which visitors can see across the Upper Rhine valley and the surrounding peaks.

The granite outcrop belongs to the Northern Black Forest massif near Bühlerhöhe. The shelter beside the rock, the Hertahütte, is named after Hertha Isenbart, the builder of Bühlerhöhe. The formation is registered as a geological natural monument (Geotop) and is surrounded by protected Schonwald forest.

The Hertahütte shelter beside the rocks is named after Hertha Isenbart, who built Bühlerhöhe. The German name Falkenfelsen means "Falcon Rock". From the shelter a path continues to the Brockenfelsen, and climbers use routes of difficulty III to IX on the rock.

Marked hiking trails lead from the Black Forest Highway through the forest to reach the formation and a nearby shelter. The paths are accessible on foot and offer different route options depending on fitness level and available time.
