Großer Arber

The Großer Arber is always worth a detour. From here you have an amazing view over the Bavarian Forest and the Bohemian Forest.

The summit of the Großer Arber is actually just one of several elevations on the "summit plateau". Here you have a beautiful view of the Bavarian Forest.

One possibility is to leave the car at the large Arbersee, to take a bus to the valley station and from there take the cable car to the mountain station. From there, the Arberweg, which is also walkable for smaller children, leads back to the lake.

By the way, on sunny working days in the summer holidays it can get pretty crowded up there. At the summit cross in the late morning, we barely got through, because the people jostled.

When the weather is good, the view is simply gigantic!

In good weather, definitely visit! The gondola ride is not so expensive and the way up is great

The King of the Bavarian Forest 🏔 Worth a hike in any season.

The king of the Bayerwoid. Always beautiful! It can be reached through relatively well-paved gravel roads. But more challenging paths also lead to the summit. There is something for everyone! 👍🏼

Beautiful and ice cold in winter.

You can also enjoy the view at any time, even if you don't want to run up. By the gondola!

From up here you have a wonderful view over the Bavarian Forest

Beautiful area with a great view

Due to the cable car, many people are up here, but it is an easily conquered summit. The view is worthwhile.

One of the most beautiful views in the Bavarian Forest.
Overcrowded during the day.
Ideal for a sunrise hike.

It is absolutely fantastic on the large Arber. Many beautiful and strenuous hiking trails lead up to the "King of the Bavarian Forest".
Always worth a recommendation 👍

Certainly great views in appropriate weather!

Very nice view. The most beautiful at sunrise.

Always a different picture at the summit. 👈

Great view in good weather, but very many tourists.
Visit but definitely worth it.

Beautiful view in all directions.

Beautiful view in all directions. Definitely a recommendation.

If the ascent is too steep for you, you can also take the cable car up and walk down to the valley station.

Always nice at the summit when not much is going on.

Simply a sensational view in good weather

Those who shy away from the ascent (with children) take the gondola up and walk down. A must as the highest peak in the Bavarian Forest, but I found the great Osser to be more beautiful. If you're early enough, it's not too crowded either. Tip: if you book the gondola online, you save time and queues.
