The Jahnsgrün bee trail is a special highlight for nature lovers and will surprise you with interesting facts about bees. It leads through a beautiful landscape and shares the same route as the Oberhartmannsdorf circular trail. The informative boards clearly explain why bees are important, which products are obtained from the honeycombs and many more surprising facts. A bench and the "Jahnsgrün" hikers' hut run by Sachsenforst complete the themed trail.
Guided hikes are offered every 1st Sunday of the month from 16:00 between March and November.
