    Hiking

    This striking rocky outcrop blends harmoniously into the ensemble of dense forests, clear rivers and gentle hills and offers hikers an unforgettable experience.

    The name "Pechstein" may seem puzzling at first, but a look at the dark, almost black rock quickly reveals where it got its name from. In the midst of the bright green forests, the Pechstein rises majestically, like a guardian over Bohemian Switzerland.
