On this route you will encounter two special monuments. At Napoléonsknäppchen, an oak tree rises in honor of Napoleon's son and a viewing platform presents you the plateau. Doigt de Dieu means Finger of God in German. This natural, stone monument may not show you the right way, but marks a magnificent view.
