Lake House Fichtelgebirge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A short, crisp climb - what could be better than a good snack and a cool drink, before you take more trails under the wheels. Good and cozy stop!

Wooden bridge over the Fichtelsee

Highlight • Bridge

Two new arch bridges were erected at Fichtelsee in September 2021. They replace the two dilapidated wooden buildings that stood here before. If you stand on the bridge, you have a wonderful view over the lake to the Schneeberg.

July 6, 2021,🏃‍♀️👍 Fichtelsee & Dach der Franken, 6.7.21, 17:00

Today again for 2 😊 what for a wonderful tour, the Fichtelsee with its glittering boggy water, the countless dragonflies and the beautiful benches would have been worth a trip on its own. Countless thimbles bloom in the forest, boggy brooks splash around everywhere, the way to the Schneeberg is very easy and is also used by bikers, then you …

October 29, 2023,Vom Fichtelsee zum Schneeberg und zurück

There was clearly a lack of altitude yesterday. So my better half came up with the idea of visiting Schneeberg. It is over 1000 meters high. It started from Fichtelsee. First go around because it is wonderful. With the morning sun, the water and the leaves shone in an autumnal way and offered us wonderful photo opportunities. Then we went …

December 11, 2021,Wanderung im Fichtelgebirge

It was the first time I hiked in the Fichtelgebirge, the forests were really ingeniously snowy, unfortunately it was too foggy so that we had no clear view - not even the observation tower on the Schneeberg could be seen. It doesn't matter this tour with my son was really, really nice!

We continued uphill to the Schneeberg, from the observation tower you have a great panoramic view of the Schneeberg, simply beautiful. Then we …

February 11, 2024,Winterwanderung Seehaus Parkplatz - Schneeberg - Seehaus - Fichtelsee

Originally it was supposed to be a snowshoe hike, but due to the lack of snow, it became a rainy winter hike. We started at the Seehaus parking lot. We walked along wide hiking trails towards Haberstein - we "left this one on the left" and went straight to the Schneeberg, which the fog has enveloped in its white, veiled …
