In our frantic, high-pressure society, few things have become rarer and more valuable than time and leisure. The constant hustle and bustle, the overwhelming amount of digital communication, and the pressure to be available anytime, anywhere only intensify the desire to leave it all behind and unwind. More than two thousand years ago, philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, and Epicurus taught that human beings need “otium”—divine leisure—to be at peace with themselves.Enjoy the tranquility along the Path of Deceleration. At the numerous ancient places of power and scenic viewpoints, beautiful benches invite you to linger. Where it wasn’t possible to set up benches, use your picnic blanket and sit in the shade of the large old trees or on the ancient granite boulders of the Bohemian Forest. Pause for a moment and feel the revitalizing energy—you’ll leave the Bohemian Forest feeling well-rested. All stages have one thing in common: as soon as you leave the villages behind, you’ll be enveloped by the tranquility of nature. Hike through the varied landscape and discover something new every day. From the valleys of the Große, Kleine, and Steinernen Mühl rivers all the way up to the Bohemian Forest ridge, nature offers plenty of variety. - Stage 1: Aigen-Schlägl – Haslach, 19 km - Stage 2: Haslach – Helfenberg 20 km - Stage 3: Helfenberg – Rohrbach-Berg 20 km - Stage 4: Rohrbach-Berg – Peilstein 16 km - Stage 5: Peilstein – Kohlstatt 19 km - Stage 6: Kohlstatt – Schwarzenberg 20 km - Stage 7: Schwarzenberg – Holzschlag 21 km - Stage 8: Holzschlag – Hintenberg, 16 km - Stage 9: Hintenberg – Aigen-Schlägl, 14 km Upon request, we’d be happy to provide you with a detailed description of this route.
