Luisenburg Rock Labyrinth

Highlight • Natural Monument

The rock labyrinth is an adventure for all ages. Here, you not only hike between the impressive rock faces, but also sometimes have to crawl through tiny holes or climb narrow stairs to follow the circular path through the rock formations. For everyone's safety, please observe the one-way system.

Kösseinehaus

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Kösseinehaus is definitely worth the drive. Not only the Rundrumaussicht, but also the beautifully landscaped guest area are recommended. Indoor and outdoor seating, therefore, even in slightly worse weather suitable as a destination. On weekends in good weather you should be prepared for that every seat is occupied and the food is already very long in coming. But the beverage selection can be a comforting and cake is also fast.

Princes' Rocks

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Prinzenfelsen is located in the middle of the forest, but is not far from the Gasthaus Silberhaus. A nice little climbing insert brings you up through a chunky rock labyrinth to the view over the treetops. The detour is also worthwhile for mountain bikers. The best way to connect with the nearby nearby Girgelhöhle.

May 1, 2025,Fichtelgebirgs Rundkurs 1/3: von Marktredwitz nach Warmensteinach🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

A fairly strenuous traverse from Marktredwitz via Luisenburg and Kösseine to Warmensteinach, based on a tour suggestion from BIKE. There are sections on both the descent and the ascent that are so rocky that only pushing is possible. Beautiful single trail sections in the Felsen Wunderland (rock wonderland). Very friendly people here in Upper Franconia. Tomorrow we're aiming for more …

Day 1:
At first the trek looks like something from the “tile masters”, @oidawolf @Lucody etc.; and it was very arduous today, up down up down..., no real peaks, modest views, a bit of rain, cold, muddy, sticky route, a lot …
