It lies about 900 m northwest of the GroÃÂer Rachel (1,453 m) but is far less frequently climbed. A summit cross stands with a summit register on the rocks just below the highest point. From the cross, there are views of the town of Zwiesel, the GroÃÂer Arber, the GroÃÂer Falkenstein, and the Frauenau Dam.
The Kleiner Rachel is only accessible on foot. There are hiking trails from the Oberfrauenau, the Klingenbrunn railway station, and the GroÃÂer Rachel. However, the path to the summit cross is unmarked and requires pathfinding. Furthermore, it is subject to trail use regulations (Wegegebot) as an unmarked path and, according to current national park ordinances, may only be accessed between July 15 and November 15.
