Kemitzenstein, Mountain summit in Naturpark Fränkische Schweiz, Germany.
Kemitzenstein is a limestone summit in the Naturpark Fränkische Schweiz with a height of around 580 meters. The mountain features exposed rock faces and multiple routes for hikers and climbers to reach the top.
The mountain formed millions of years ago through limestone deposits and erosion processes in the Frankenjura region. These geological events created the layered rock formations visible today.
Local climbing communities maintain specific regulations for different zones of the mountain, ensuring preservation of both sport activities and natural resources.
Established hiking trails lead to the summit and require basic hiking gear. Climbers should check local regulations and stick to marked zones for their own safety.
A mountain hut sits on the slopes about 86 meters southeast of the summit. This makes the location a convenient rest stop for hikers who want to take a break.
