Description: **ATTENTION IMPORTANT: Entry to the tour only possible after ascent with the Reischlbergbahn, the slopes in the ski area may not be walked on!**

 Every step through the Bohemian Forest adventure region - a treat for body and soul!

The detailed description can be found under Multimedia/Documents. IMPORTANT: it is forbidden to walk on the pistes!
Start the tour with a ride up the Reischlbergbahn cable car. Once at the top, keep to the right towards the forest and follow the green signposting "Naturally on Tour". Take a break and enjoy the fantastic views from the Schönberg rock with the summit cross!
Now continue a short distance in the direction of the Hochficht summit. Turn right and follow the sloping path below the Schönbergkreuz to the forest road. Continue slightly uphill on the right until the next junction, then turn right again through the young forest until you reach the path you took earlier. Turn left and follow this path uphill back to the mountain railway!
TIP: from the mountain station of the Reischlbergbahn it is only a few steps to the left to the Reischlberg summit with excellent views.
**PLEASE NOTE: You can only start the tour after taking the Reischlbergbahn, the pistes in the ski area may not be used.**
