The Arzberger forest is a dense forest on a ridge between the villages Schirnding - along the Czech border to Seedorf - and Seußen in the administrative district of Upper Franconia belonging northern Kohlwald , east of the city Arzberg in the district of Wunsiedel .

On January 1, 1995, the former community-free area was dissolved. At the time of its dissolution it had an area of ​​16.3 km² (exactly 1630.09 hectares ). The area was divided into the market Schirnding (northeastern part on the Czech border with 860.05 ha) and the city of Arzberg (southwestern part 770.04 ha).

geography

The ridge consists of several elevations around the Moosrangen (599 m). Other prominent elevations are Sieben-Linden-Berg (643 m), Kohlberg (633 m), Galgenschlag (573 m), Sommerrangen (544 m), Dachsrangen (530 m) and Ameisenbühl (525 m). Only historical maps (around 1820) refer to the summit region on Moosrangen as a Saubad .

State road St 2178 runs through the forest to the east of Seedorf and connects Schirnding with Waldsassen . The district road WUN 13 runs through Seedorf and connects the state road St 2178 with the further west state road St 2176 .

Tourist development

Along with many other hiking trails, the Fichtelgebirgsverein's blue column trail, marked with a white O on a red background, runs through the Arzberger Forest . It is worth mentioning that this path is absolutely straightforward for long stretches.

history

The forest used to serve as a source of raw materials for the former coal piles of iron smelting in Arzberg.

After the end of the Holy Roman Empire , the western part of the Kohlwald belonged to the Kingdom of Bavaria (also called the "Siebenlindengebirge" there), which is why the Sieben-Linden-Berg is often incorrectly stated as the highest mountain in the Kohlwald in older publications .
