Hiking

Immediately after the Ahornwiese there is this bench with a stone stele and information boards. These belong to the forest nature trail. Different types of rock are explained here using the stele.

Hiking

The granite forms of the Fichtelgebirge are explained here. There were many mines around Gefrees, Waldstein and Epprechtstein that mined granite. Today only a few are still in operation (e.g. in Bad Berneck and at Epprechtstein).
