Viewpoint Reiherberg

The Reiherberg can be reached on foot via the Reinhard-Barby-Höhenweg. It lies to the north of the main town of Feldberg and offers a phenomenal view of the main town in the lake district. Because it is also 60 m above the level of the Haussee lake, the mountain is one of the highlights of the hiking route in both senses of the word. However, it should be noted that the Reiherberg is by no means a mountain in the classic sense, but rather - like all the landscapes around Feldberg - part of the glacial series. The elevation is described more precisely by the term "glacial edge", which was formed when the dead ice melted. The Reiherberg is particularly beautiful in the early morning when the fog clears over the adjacent Haussee lake or on New Year's Eve. From here, you can watch the pyrotechnical goings-on of the inhabitants of Feldberg. But the mountain also shows its graceful side at all other times. Due to its beauty, the Reiherberg not only attracts hikers, it can also be visited by cyclists. In addition, carriage rides through the surrounding beech forest are regularly offered, with the mountain as a must-see attraction.
