    Hiking

    Between Elisenfels and Arzberg you will find this narrow, wild and romantic gorge that the Röslau has created into the rocks. Hence the name "Gsteinigt". A unique biotope and also one of the most beautiful geotopes in Bavaria.
    It is about 2 km long and an easily accessible hiking trail accompanies the river.

    Hiking

    The silver spring, tapped in 1919, is located on the hiking trail through the G'steinigt. It is reminiscent of mining in the Arzberg iron ore district. In 1863, a 100 meter long tunnel was driven into the rock at the Silberquelle, which was intended to drain the mine water from the Morgenstern shaft. The remains of a wheelhouse, a landing wall for ore barges and a natural weir date back to this time. Unfortunately, for safety reasons, the tunnel can no longer be visited.

    Hiking

    Here you walk through the nature reserve G'steinigt, always along the Röslau, at some point you stand in front of the St. Georg tunnel. Enjoy the unique nature in the Fichtelgebierge.
