Rabengrund

Highlight • Forest

A beautiful place, very lonely, almost unused path - an approach from the Frankenweg. Dreamlike silence, we will never forget.

Observation Tower at Pressecker Knock

Highlight • Viewpoint

The new observation tower is modeled after a pine cone. With a height of over 45 meters, the tower offers views over the Frankenwald, the Fichtelgebirge, and as far as Thuringia.
The path up leads via an external staircase, which is equipped with spacious landings. Here you can pause for a moment and admire nature. At the end of the ascent, visitors are greeted by an observation deck that offers a breathtaking 360-degree view.
For those who cannot climb the stairs, there is also a solution: a 360-degree camera at the highest point of the tower allows you to admire the view comfortably from the information center or even online.

A lovely holiday hike! After the last week of rain, it's all the more appreciated that you could walk almost dry-footed. Only in the Rabengrund was the grass still wet. The path, which follows a small stream, is all the more beautiful.
