    The historic rest area "Waidmannsruh" on Brunnenberg, renovated and newly furnished by the Sachsenforst (Saxony Forest Service), offers the opportunity to enjoy a long forest bath on the sky loungers.

      In addition to the wonderfully prepared place, at the same time a beautiful vantage point with a view of the pearl of the Vogtland.

          Here the Sachsenforst has created a very modern place to rest. Who likes it ...

            The rest area is in the forest and is on a hilltop. There are two sturdy comfortable wooden loungers. Especially in the hot season, the breeze is good. With a bit of luck you can also see the top of the church tower and a bit more of the town.

              A beautiful spot in the middle of the "Waidmannsruh" forest. There are also two wooden loungers for relaxation here, very nicely done.
