Naturpark Fichtelgebirge

In the Fichtelgebirge, a unique low mountain range in the north of Bavaria, outdoor sports enthusiasts and nature lovers are equally welcome. Plenty of hiking and cycling routes offer opportunities to enjoy an active break in this beautiful nature park. The rugged peaks of Ochsenkopf and Schneeberg stand out from the horseshoe-shaped, wooded chain of hills and give the landscape its distinctive character.
