If you are looking for peace and quiet, want to get away from it all and just need a short break, then Brandteich is the place for you!
Families with children are also welcome here. Thanks to the low volume of traffic, many nearby excursion destinations are easily accessible by bike. Marked (cycle) hiking trails lead through meadows and forests, through untouched nature, past huge rock formations such as the Hinterpocher or Pumperskirchen, which are definitely worth an excursion!
During a short break, you can indulge in culinary delights in one of the numerous inns.
