The small market town of Falkenstein

View of Falkenstein castle |
Falkenstein (628m above sea-level)
Falkenstein, a picturesque town, has been recognised
as a climatic health resort for more than two decades. It is surrounded
by a beautiful landscape rich in forests, and overlooked by the castle.
It has 1,700 inhabitants and is the administrative centre for the
3,000 inhabitants of the villages in its vicinity. All important services
are available.
Apart from the castle with its Hunting Museum and
its yearly Summer Festival, the estate - the second largest nature
and rock reserve in Bavaria - attrackts lots of visitors each year.
As does the former railway embankment to Regensburg, 35 nice km travelled
by bike riders in the summer and cross country skiers in the winter.
Falkenstein itself has a picturesque market-place
with a historic town hall, a heated open-air pool with a beach-volleyball
field, mini-golf and Kneipp cure complex. The restaurants are very
good and a huge array of dishes is on offer. A vast net of hiking
trails and cross-country ski runs as well as possibilities to fish,
shoot and play tennis are at your disposal.
