Map / Felsengruppe Waldstein
Der Waldsteinzug im Fichtelgebirge ist ein Beispiel für die Wollsackverwitterung. Vom Aussichtspavillon "Schüssel" hat man einen herrlichen Blick. In seiner Form besonders ist der Teufelstisch: ein emporragender Felsen mit einer ovalen Steinplatte darauf. In der Steinplatte sind Vertiefungen zu erkennen, die der Sage nach von den eisernen Karten herrühren, mit denen der Teufel und die Kobolde spielten.
