The Schweinsfels can be reached via a steep and narrow ladder (possibly leave the backpack at the bottom) and offers an almost perfect panoramic view. The visibility extends from the Lindelbrunn Castle in the west over the Haselstein, the Rötzenfels in the north, the Geiersteine, the Kriemhildenstein, the Asselstein, the castles Trifels, Scharfenberg (Münz) and Landeck in the east, as well as to the Abtskopf.

The Schweinsfelsen is part of countless colorful sandstone rocks in the Palatinate Forest. The Nature Park circular path 26 and the Climate and Nature Experience Trail, starting from the village of Silz, lead directly past the rock.

Colorful sandstone shapes the landscape in the Palatinate Forest. About 50 million years ago, the layers of colorful sandstone became visible again due to tectonic movements in the area. Their present shape was created by erosion, which often also contributed to the naming.

Other interesting rocks nearby include the Kellerfelsen, the Rötzenfelsen, and the Krimhildenstein.
