The Bien state , in some stories and novels Bistand called, is a flat, 865 m high ridge in the Bavarian Forest between the villages of St. Oswald-Riedlhütte and Grafenau directly south from the significantly higher mountains Rachel and Lusen which already in the Bavarian Forest National Park are. Its name probably comes from Middle High German ("bien" = "near, near" and "stand" = "forest pasture", see also Kirchlinger stand ) and means "near forest pasture".
On the flat summit plateau there is a large wooden cross, the view to the south is unobstructed and on foehn days extends to the chain of the Alps from the Dachstein to the Kaiser Mountains . Several marked hiking trails lead up to the Bienstand from the surrounding villages; the closest are Reichenberg and Höhenbrunn.
