In Redlschlag bei Bernstein there is a viewing cone, affectionately called "Guglhupf", which allows for a wonderful panoramic view at 794m.
In clear weather, an impressive panorama can be seen, stretching from the Rax and Schneeberg in the northwest, across the Bucklige Welt, the Neusiedler See in the east, all the way to the Pannonian Lowlands in the southeast.

At the foot of the cone, there is a crescent-shaped stone wall that defines a fire pit. The so-called "Kreidfeuer" served as a warning system against approaching enemies during the Middle Ages and the early modern period.
