Geographically, Hauzenberg lies at the foot of the Bavarian Forest and is surrounded by breathtaking scenery. The town itself has a rich history and culture to offer. There are many tourist attractions such as the pilgrimage church of St. Leonhard or the observation tower on the Dreisesselberg with views of Austria and the Czech Republic.

Cultural highlights include the annual folk festival and various concerts and theatre performances in summer. Culinary specialities of the region can be enjoyed in numerous restaurants - be sure to try the traditional Bavarian cuisine!

The best time for outdoor activities is definitely summer, where you can go hiking, cycling or swimming. In winter, skiing is a great option at the nearby slopes.

If it rains, there are also indoor activities such as a visit to the Alte Mühle museum or relax with a massage at the wellness centre.

The most beautiful area in Hauzenberg is undoubtedly the Bavarian Forest National Park with its picturesque hiking and biking trails through dense forests and clear lakes.

So Hauzenberg is definitely worth a trip! Let yourself be enchanted by this idyllic town and experience an unforgettable holiday!

Wirklich erlebnisreicher Weg, teils ähnlich einem Steig. Da Hin- und Rückweg gleich sind, kann man selbst die Länge nach Belieben/Zeit bestimmen. Ab der Überquerung der Straße Kellberg-Rothenkreuz wird's etwas breiter.

Eine tolle Tour auf den Staffelberg. Was meiner Meinung noch hinzugefügt werden sollte, ist die Feuerstelle auf dem Gipfel. Mit mitgebrachten Grillutensilien kann man sich noch eine tolle Mahlzeit grillen.
