Asphalt Chapel Etsdorf

Highlight • Religious Site

The asphalt chapel was designed and built on the occasion of the Upper Bavarian Culture Days in Altötting in 2001. Since June 2002 it has been at the edge of the forest near Etsdorf/Opf. in the district of Amberg-Sulzbach and is accessible all year round. It is the only building that consists exclusively of asphalt (mastic asphalt). Sacrificial candles can be lit in it. The asphalt chapel festival takes place every year at the beginning of May, with the blessing of a new artists' cross on the "Kreuze-Weg".
Every two years over Christmas, the "Christmas tree ball sky" can be seen.

Kulm Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Kulm is the local mountain of the historic city of Nabburg. The observation tower is located at the highest point - when you reach the top you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Eixlberg and the Naab valley. You can get the key for the tower at the nearby Gasthaus zum Kulm. We also recommend a stop at the opportunity.

Forest Trail Ascent to Kulm

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great trail that is definitely more fun down than up. Steep climb, the last meters are tough, because the slope increases again.
