Anyone who wants to quietly enjoy a hike through the forest away from the hiking and mountain biking hotspots is in the right place here! While tourists are practically stepping on each other's feet around Walberla & Co., you here have to wait a long time until you spot a hiker. But beware: sturdy footwear and sufficient mobility are required – not suitable for strollers or "Sunday street walkers"! :-)

    Eine sehr schöne Tour für lauffreudige. Als Startpunk kann ich Plankenfels wärmstens empfehlen. Dann wird die Neubürg zum echten Höhepunkt.

    Das Lochautal ist naturbelassen und schön, meist findet man da auch Ruhe, idyllisch fügen sich kleine Weiler ein. Herrliche Aussicht hat vom Knock und vom Wachstein. - Ein Stern Abzug, weil man um Obersees einige Zeit auf geteerten Wegen wandert und bei gutem Wetter Scharen von Touristen und Ausflüglern nicht gerade für Ruhe und Entspannung sorgen. - Der Hinweis "gut mit Bus und Bahn erreichbar" stimmt nicht oder nicht mehr! Plankenfels und Obernsees werden von der Buslinie 376 des VGN ab Bayreuth(BHF) bedient und besonders am Wochenende nur in mehrstündigen Abständen angefahren. Einige Fahrten finden als Anrufsammeltaxi nur nach Voranmeldung statt!

    Wunderschöner Rundkurs von Obernsees auf die Neubürg. Als Wandertour oder als anspruchsvoller Traillauf. Kanckige Anstiege werden mit einem wunderschönen Rundgang auf der Neubürg mit Kunst und traumhaften Ausblicken belohnt. Für mich jedesmal ein absolutes MUSS wenn ich in Obernsees bin!

    Hallo wir haben die Tour mit Hund gemacht läßt sich gut laufen würde Sie aber eher als Mittel einstufen da schon einige Anstiege zu bewältigen sind. Aber sehr schöne Aussichten zu genießen - herrlich (vorausgesetzt Wetter ist gut). Wanderung würde ich eher für Frühjahr oder Herbst einplanen da viele sonnige Wege vorhanden sind, teilweise muss man auf der Landstraße gehen was aber nicht schlimm ist da diese sehr wenig befahren sind. Wir sind mit Hund gelaufen sehr gut geeignet da immer wieder Wasserquellen, Bäche und (Frühjahr) und kleine Tümpel an der Strecke liegen.
