Bismarck Tower Herberg

Highlight • Monument

Unfortunately, the observation tower is no longer accessible.
There are many footpaths up there. It is best to always follow route 4.

Coniferous gravel garden. Material mix of rock types and everything that the hardware store offers. Polarizing ambience. Candidate for "Gardens of Horror".

View of Bayreuth from the forest path

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A hiking trail that represents a leisurely round for Sunday afternoon. Not too demanding, but not boring, as there is always something to discover. You can expand or shorten it at short notice.
