Trail to the Waldnaab Spring

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Nice to ride trail without major technical difficulties, S0 / S1.

The very beautiful spring (1951), also called "Kreuzbrunnen", the Tirschenreuther Waldnaab. Coming from the source, the Waldnaab covers only about three meters on German soil before it flows as Lesní Nába for two kilometers through western Bohemia. In the northwest it crosses the German border again and reaches Bärnau. Beautiful granite bench with various coats of arms.

Havran Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very well restored border tower from the Cold War, now a great vantage point with a great view of the Bohemian, Upper Palatinate and the Bavarian Forest.

Bread Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very worth seeing rock formation made of granite, the shape is created by so-called cushion or mattress weathering. Such curious and jagged rocks are often seen on the peaks and heights of the stone forest. The so-called "bread rock" looks like stacked loaves of granite.

Schellenberg Castle Ruins and Observation Tower

Highlight • Castle

Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian had the castle built in 1347 to repel raids from Bohemia. The castle was stormed and partly destroyed in 1498. In 1865 the so-called Schellenberg-Niggl, the last inhabitant of the castle grounds, left the Schellenberg. Today the castle ruins, which are located at 826 meters, are the highest vantage point in the Upper Palatinate.

Flossenbürg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

An impressive ruin, worth visiting for the complex alone. But the magnificent views are also inspiring.

Haselstein castle site and Haselstein information hut

Highlight • Historical Site

There is a nice rest area made of stone here (if the weather is good). Otherwise, there are benches with a table up in the shelter or further down in the information pavilion where you can take a break. You can also read about the Haselstein.

July 2, 2023,Brotfelsen – Drachenfels - Trail Runde von Plößberg

Today trail tour was announced, was beautiful, was fun. After an involuntary forced break and an infection, let the whole thing take it slow to still find out that your condition is in the basement again, the route was almost exclusively in the forest, the trails were cool, but the climbs were tough. It was up to the prominent ones …
