How to get there

This photo is of a dock on the east side of Fichtelsee in the municipality of Fichtelberg in Upper Franconia. The best way to get here is by car (cheaper than taxi) from Bayreuth or Weißenstadt, which are the two big cities nearby. Park your car at Parkplatz am Fichtelsee (50.0133454, 11.8542563). From there, cross the bridge towards Hotel am Fichtelsee, and then make a right walking down the east side of the reservoir until you see this specific dock. It'll take you about 13 minutes to walk from the parking lot.
