Weißer Main Nature Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Wonderful, natural path directly on the White Main. Moss-covered rocks, cheerfully rippling, crystal-clear water... you can really start dreaming while hiking. Although that is not so cheap, since the path requires a lot of attention.

Karchesweiher

Highlight • Lake

Numerous hiking trails start from this small lake and the adjacent car park. Since the Karchessee is located directly on the B 303, it is not so idyllic.

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.
