Hiking

Wonderful views of the Bavarian Forest mountains are guaranteed on this 21-kilometer panoramic tour (marking: red 1, red 1a). The circular route begins at the diverse spa park in Grafenau and initially leads you along the Kleine Ohe to the Kleblmühle, where you can stop off and watch the deer in the associated enclosure. It continues to Elmberg with the first fantastic views of the beautiful landscape of the Bavarian Forest.

You then reach Neudorf and from there make a detour past historic boundary stones and a magnificent wayside cross to the idyllically located viewing rock "Geistlicher Stein". After you have enjoyed the panorama, you walk back to Neudorf via Seiboldenreuth. On this route you also reach the small wobbly stone on the Steinbügl via a short meadow path. Between forest and field, the route then goes via Lichteneck, Klingmühle and Schlag back to Grafenau.

Along the tour you will find the Kleblmühle, Sportpark Neudorf and Zitzlhütte Elmberg refreshment stops.

Panorama Trail at Elmberg

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A short hike around the Elmberg offers a wonderful panoramic view of the mountains and landscape of the Bavarian Forest (including Rachel and Lusen). Circular route 1 (Panorama Tour) from Grafenau leads past here. The benches and the rest area are mainly in the shade of the forest, are already a bit weathered and, depending on the season and the weather, are damp. They therefore only invite you to linger when the sun is shining.

Geistlicher Stein

Highlight • Summit

At the time of the Swedish wars, so the legend goes, the rock offered protection to creditors who were hiding from the troops.

Bäreal Adventure Playground and Bear Path in Kurpark Grafenau

Highlight • Rest Area

The large outdoor area makes children's dreams come true! Climbing, scrambling, sliding, and running around – there are virtually no limits to their urge to move:

Playhouses, swings, slides, and seesaws; a water play area with a hand pump, stream, and weirs; a castle ruin on the hill made of remaining walls; a balcony with views through it; fantastic climbing opportunities; various ramps, slides, and bridges; the bear's mouth and bear's cave with the growling bear; and the zip line delight all children.

The area is open year-round and free of charge (no entrance fee). In winter, opening times may vary depending on the weather.
