ラシャウ・マルカースバッハのおすすめツーリングルート

The Greifenbach reservoir is one of the oldest dams in Germany. It dams the Rote Wasser stream. Today it is a local recreation area.

The Markersbach pumped-storage power plant is open to visitors. Guided tours lasting approximately two to two and a half hours are offered, providing insight into the power plant's engine cavern and operational procedures.

A wonderful opportunity for a rest on the numerous benches overlooking the heath pond.

Very beautiful, wooded area. I live here, and if anyone would like to explore the area, I'd be happy to accompany them...please contact me. Cyclist Chris

A beautiful sandy beach, pleasantly clean air, excellent water quality, and two spacious lawns make the hearts of all sun worshippers and water lovers beat faster. The Greifenbachstauweiher pond is a popular holiday and recreation center and excursion destination at the foot of the Greifensteine.

The large peace bell on the Fichtelberg had to remain silent for six months in 2024. Stone throwing in May 2022 had so badly damaged the bell that its sound suffered. It was decided to stop ringing it and replace it with a new one. The old bell rang for the last time on Easter Monday 2024. Just in time for the mountain service on German Unity Day on October 3, the new bell was officially rung for the first time in the fall of 2024. The idea of using a peace bell to commemorate the peaceful revolution of 1989 in the GDR and German reunification in 1990 came from watchman Gerd Schlesinger and night watchman Jörg Eller from the Ore Mountains town of Schwarzenberg. The bell was also intended to be heard in neighboring Czechia and thus ring for a united Europe. The cast steel bell, already ninety years old at the time, was rung for the first time in 2010. The new bell was cast in Innsbruck by the Grassmayr company. At 2,700 kilograms, it is about 1,100 kilograms heavier than the old bell.

Great view and great bike path.

There is a very beautiful view from the dam.
