The origin of Naab (Fichtelnaab) lies at the south and southeastern foot of the Ochsenkopf, where numerous rivulets merge and unite with the captured Naabquelle. The Fichtelnaabquelle lies at 867 meters above sea level in the Hochwald forest. With the inlets of the Waldnaab from the Upper Palatinate Forest and the Heidenaab, coming from the Steinwald, the Naab forms the central gully of the Upper Palatinate to the Danube.

Weissmain Rocks

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very nice view over the summits of the Fichtelgebirge (Ochsenkopf, Schneeberg, Nußhardt) - very worthwhile. In good weather, the view extends to about 50 kilometers.

Weißmain Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

Beautiful source on the northeastern slope of the Ochsenkopf near Bischofsgrün. Good accessibility, as well as opportunities to relax (benches, etc.). The White Main unites west of Kulmbach with the Red Main and flows at Mainz in the Rhine.

Asenturm on the Ochsenkopf

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Asenturm, which opened in 1923, is still considered the best place for a spectacular Ochsenkopf view. As the second highest mountain of the Fichtelgebirge, located at an altitude of 1,024 meters, the view seems to sweep over all of Bavaria. Unfortunately, he also attracts some visitors, who arrive not only on foot, but also with the chairlift. Nonetheless highly recommended!

Ochsenkopf Summit — Bull’s Head Carving

Highlight • Summit

The name "Ochsenkopf" first appeared in mine records in 1495, when Lorenz von Ploben from Nuremberg received the mine on the Fichtelberge "near the Ochsenkopf" as a fief. This may be the first indication of the bull's head carved into a rock on the mountain top, which can still be seen today.

In winter, the asphalt ski roller track serves as a training opportunity for cross-country skiing. For this purpose, the 2.5 km long track will be equipped with lighting and snow-making systems. The roller ski track is suitable for both classic and skating technology.
