Explore Chamerau through a range of interests: the park near the Regen River, trails of varying lengths and difficulty levels, and an Early Gothic baptismal font each offer something distinct. When deciding what to focus on, consider whether landscape, exercise or culture is most important to you.
Park and Fish Trail
Chamerau’s park was created in 2006 near the Regen River and covers approximately 11,000 m². The fish trail in the municipal park opened in September 2010. Eight panels describe 21 native fish species. The park thus offers a scenic connection to the river, while the trail provides a themed introduction to native fish. If you are interested in learning about nature, you can make the trail a focus of your visit. Check the latest visitor information if you want to include it as a fixed part of your itinerary.
Nordic Walking and Other Leisure Activities
Four Nordic walking trails of varying difficulty levels have been signposted in Chamerau since spring 2009; they are 4.5 to 12.5 km long. Both length and difficulty level are therefore relevant when comparing the trails. Consider both details when choosing a route, and take current trail conditions into account in your plans. Chamerau also has an asphalt-stock sport lane. If you want to include it in your plans, check the current options for using it in advance.
Early Gothic Baptismal Font in St. Peter and Paul
Chamerau’s parish church of St. Peter and Paul houses an Early Gothic granite baptismal font, probably created in the mid-13th century. The twelve apostles are depicted beneath trefoil arches. Its granite construction, probable date and figurative decoration make the font a specific art-historical point of interest. If you are interested in medieval church art, this detail offers a distinct cultural highlight in Chamerau.
Travel by Bus and Train
Chamerau is accessible by public transport, with bus and train connections. Check current services for your travel dates. If travel by bus or train is important to your choice of where to stay, include this check in your plans before choosing your accommodation as a base.
