Girgel Cave

Highlight • Cave

Interesting rock formation (granite). A small path leads to the top of the cavernous rocks (wooden staircase / ladder) - worthwhile. In the summer months: beware of ticks ...

Princes' Rocks

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Prinzenfelsen is located in the middle of the forest, but is not far from the Gasthaus Silberhaus. A nice little climbing insert brings you up through a chunky rock labyrinth to the view over the treetops. The detour is also worthwhile for mountain bikers. The best way to connect with the nearby nearby Girgelhöhle.

From here you have a fantastic view of the quarry and Tröstau and the surrounding area. The Kösseine can be seen in the background.

Lake House Fichtelgebirge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A short, crisp climb - what could be better than a good snack and a cool drink, before you take more trails under the wheels. Good and cozy stop!

From the highest elevation of the Fichtelgebirge there is a comprehensive view of the Franconian and Thuringian Forest, Magpie and Ore Mountains and the Bavarian-Bohemian border mountains.
