The driving mountain - the "holy mountain of the Upper Palatinate". For more than 800 years, believers have been making pilgrimages to the 801 meter high Fahrenberg with its pilgrimage church “Mariä Heimsuchung”, next to the church the mountain inn - butchery Josef Weig is a nice place to stop, in winter the ski and snowboard center offers two runs with 1100 m and 800 m Length. For mountain bikers, work has been done on the feasibility of a trail park on Fahrenberg since 2021.
