The Siebensteinkopf is a distinctive mountain in the southeast Bavarian Forest National Park.

The mountain owes its name to seven rocks that are scattered slightly below the summit. The trails ‘Hauptwanderweg’ and ‘Sperlingskauz’ lead past Reschbachklause and on to the summit (1263 meters above sea level). One will reach the source of river Vltava on a short cross-border detour into the Czech Republic.

Opening times

Accessible all year.

Price:

The visit to the summit is for free.
