Tips

Hiking

A great little museum in the Northern Upper Palatinate Forest Nature Park that's very informative and not at all boring. Our 7-year-old also really enjoyed it. At the entrance, you're given headphones that you plug in yourself at each station. A lot of information is explained through short films, making it interesting and easy to understand even for children. The volcanic eruption is, of course, the highlight!

The volcano experience is a modern museum. Various short, well-made films can be listened to with headphones. You can learn a lot about the origins of the cone and later of the town. The volcano erupts every hour. A great experience, not only for the children.
Plan 60, better 90 minutes for the museum. Nice program item for dubious days.
