Flurbereinigungsbrunnen Rest Area

Highlight • Rest Area

The benches of the municipality of Hague are stupidly removed in the winter months - hiking and resting not desired! Luckily, there are several private benches! In summer, this rest area is pleasantly cool and shady.

Rotmain Spring

Highlight • River

Here in Lindenhardt Forest south of Bayreuth the Red Main springs from its source. It gets its name because of the entrained sediments, which make it appear reddish. After 72 kilometers, he joins Kulmbach with the White Main.
