Great starting point for hikes and bike tours. From the hiking car park in the east of Hiltpoltstein, it goes directly to the Silberecke and the various viewpoints and the nature trail. Free of charge, hiking overviews are available.

Bitzenberg Viewpoint (586 m)

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great space and a wonderful view. The last 15 m you have to scramble a little, you should be sure-footed to reach the vantage point. At 586m, the Bitzenberg is a beautiful vantage point.
