Hiking
The rocks of the Waldsassen Slate Mountains, which extend from the Tillenberg in Czech territory to Wondreb in the southwest and to the "Gsteinigt" near Arzberg in the northwest, were of interest for mining due to their extensive quartz deposits. Between the 13th and 19th centuries, gold was also mined in these quartz veins. However, the finds were modest.
