The Grenzsteig between Zwercheck and Großer Osser is an absolutely recommendable path, especially when there is a clear view. It's a constant up and down. Long stretches of the path are interspersed with roots and stones. Therefore, careful walking is required. It is difficult to achieve a fast walking speed. But there are wonderful views of the Arberkamm but also far-reaching views deep into the Czech Republic.

Beautiful path along the German-Czech border... you pass beautiful rocks again and again

The Künic Mountains rise up between Zwercheck and the Osser massif. Not only does the national border between Germany and the Czech Republic run over this ridge, we also find one of the most impressive activities in the Bavarian Forest on this line: the hike from Zwercheck to Osser.
Anyone who has ever viewed the ridge of the Künic Mountains from the neighborhood (e.g. from the Großer Arber) should be aware that this hike is not for the lazy. There is a distance of 5.5 km between the two elevations. Ascent and descent as well as the return march to the starting point are added. The constant up and down the mountain ridge adds up to a considerable number of meters in altitude.
