Hiking

This small rest area was created just after leaving Birk. The 12 peaks of the Fichtel Mountains are listed on a board. Anyone who wants to can record their impressions of their Fichtel Mountains hike in the "12-peak Bichla".

Mountain biking

There are two lovely shady resting places with seating right by the pond in Birk, a great place for a break.
