It is not known who set up this "high moor spirit". In any case, it's a fun idea.

Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian had the castle built in 1347 to repel raids from Bohemia. The castle was stormed and partly destroyed in 1498. In 1865 the so-called Schellenberg-Niggl, the last inhabitant of the castle grounds, left the Schellenberg. Today the castle ruins, which are located at 826 meters, are the highest vantage point in the Upper Palatinate.

Old Mill Gehenhammer

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A stop at the Gehhammer mill is always a pleasure. There are great snacks, excellent homemade cakes and a delicious beer from Friedenfels.

Family-friendly hiking trail to the old Gehhammer mill. The beautiful sun terrace invites you to make a snack and the new playground at the Planer Höhe hiking car park motivates children to walk all the way back 😄
