    Nordic walking

    The Schwedenwacht is an unwooded, 692 m high hill with dry grassland near Langenbach, from which there is a wide view of the Fichtelgebirge
    and with a nice view up to the Veste Coburg. It probably offered this view as early as the Thirty Years' War and a watchman was on the lookout for enemies.
