    Hiking

    The war forest is a wooded height of the Franconian Forest between Helmbrechts, Wüstenselbitz, Gösmes, Walberngrün and Rappenreuth.
    It is the headwaters of the Rehbach and the Selbitz.


    The war forest is traversed by some beautiful and worthwhile hiking trails. On the other hand, there are rather few viewpoints, only at the edges of the forest you have a clear view. The way is the goal here.😊😊

    I find the section of the OS 17 (Eng Weg) that runs through the war forest very nice. But there are many more nice ways to discover here.
    (Steinachtalweg, Wasserscheideweg, Saarschlesienweg etc)

    The war forest seems to be connected to Kriegsreuth by name. It would be interesting to know where the name comes from.
