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.

Waldhotel at Fichtelsee

Highlight • Restaurant

Very nice restaurant which is beautifully situated on the Fichtelsee. The food is good and the price is reasonable for the location.

There are various events throughout the year. It's best to have a look at the website am-fichtelsee.de

The Fichtelseemoor is an important raised bog. In this relic of the last ice age, which is between 8,000 and 10,000 years old, a unique flora and fauna typical of raised bogs has developed under the barren conditions.
