Author's tip

A special nature experience is offered by a hike in early spring to see the snowdrop bloom – best take the path to the Gföhlberg summit at the crossroads near the bench with the service tree.
Especially coming from Stollberg, you will find numerous service trees of various ages, from the service tree school to the "old man" near the Schneeberg view by the Gföhlberg hut.
