Oberfrohnreut Trailhead — Parking

Highlight • Parking

Well suited as a starting point for hiking / biking tours. In summer you can cool your feet in the Kneipp pool 😄
The Hochwaldhüttte is also not too far away, but note the opening times here!

A detour is always worth a beautiful view 😉 (tower)
The four seasons region - Geißkopf.

In summer - bike park, archery park, hiking and rest.

In winter - popular ski area with snow-making equipment - floodlit skiing - toboggan run - snow and fun park - Geisslein park.

The catering establishments take care of the physical well-being with typical Bavarian snacks, delicacies and the tasty beer.

A hike around the 1,097 m high Geißkopf near Bischofsmais not only offers many unforgettable nature experiences. The ruins of the abandoned forest village of Oberbreitenau also tell of the hard life of mountain farmers in the Bavarian Forest. Well-marked hiking and forest trails lead to its summit. Those who prefer to be more comfortable can also use the chairlift.

Geisskopf Bike Park

Highlight • MTB Park

Great bike park with perfectly shaped routes! From beginners to professionals you should find something here. The length and variety of the routes are also great, plus the possibility of camping in the parking lot and the good and very friendly gastronomy at the valley station and on the mountain. With the new four-person chairlift, the waiting and ascent times are really limited, even during peak times and the seemingly endless lift queues! The skill area and jump line in the area of the valley station are also great. In my opinion an absolute top park!

Dreitannenriegel summit (1,092 m)

Highlight • Summit

The summit plateau of the Dreitannenriegel is a great, spacious resting place with a shelter hut and nice outdoor seating, a fascinating summit rock, surrounded by mixed forest with a gigantic panoramic view that reaches as far as the Alps in good weather. But it is also a good place for the hiking soul to enjoy peace and serenity 👣

Today we went to the Geißkopf via Landshut's house!

Here is the link to the Relive video:

Today I started somewhere different than usual: namely in Deggendorf.

I started from there with a friend. Right at the beginning it went uphill and there were a few sliding sections on trails that are better to ride downhill 😅.

Nice round from Deggendorf with a detour to the bike park. I got a bit frayed on the descent from Dreitanna. Gives a nicer line in the middle part

After doing some gardening this morning, I spontaneously decided to go on a tour in the afternoon. From Deggendorf I simply set off towards Geisskopf. In the end, I had three stream crossings planned (I decided not to do the fourth crossing today - the ford felt half a meter deep), the Geißkopf and a visit to the "Nest" with …

An incredibly beautiful and technically challenging tour. At the Geisskopf, you can stop for a break and enjoy the view over the beautiful Bavarian Forest. The wooden observation tower is also a highlight.

The later the autumn, the more alone I am. Today was a great day for biking. I only saw one biker and one hiker on the whole route and I was alone on the summits too.
