    Rather inconspicuous on the side of the road.

      The Hufberg is a small elevation in the Bohemian Forest (Šumava) a few hundred meters from the border triangle of Germany, Czech Republic and Austria. The highest elevation of the Bohemian Forest, the Plöckenstein (Plechý, 1378m) is a stone's throw away. Due to the heavy bark beetle infestation, the tree population has suffered greatly, large areas over 1000m above sea level are completely tree-free. Storms did the rest.

        With good visibility you can see as far as the main Alpine ridge. Great area!

          The Hufberg is only 1cm lower than the Plöckenstein...but hardly anyone knows it...because there is no summit cross 😉!

                An inconspicuous hill with a good view.

                  The Hufberg (1378 m) on the Austrian side is not much lower than the more famous Plöckenstein (Plechý - 1379 m). However, it is not specifically marked as a mountain. As a result, most hikers do not even notice this rock formation on the side of the trail.

                    After Cyril and the bark beetle it looks really poor.

                      Cyril and the bark beetle did a great job
