Bayerwald Viewpoint West of Zwercheck Summit

Highlight • Viewpoint

A magnificent nature cinema with 20 box seats, a few meters west of/below the Zwercheck summit.

Sensational views of the Arberkamm (the eight peaks over 1,000 meters high between Eck and Großer Arber), the Lamer Winkel, Hohenbogen, and the Großer and Kleiner Osser.

A quiet place to take a breather, linger, and enjoy a snack.

The panoramic panel provides information about the surrounding Bavarian Forest mountains.

Beautiful, long and easy to walk climb up to the two peaks. Only the last section was a bit more difficult. It went up a rocky path consisting of many roots.
