Gibacht, Mountain summit in Bavarian Forest, Germany

The Gibacht summit stands at 923 meters above sea level, offering views across the Further Valley and toward the Czech border region.

The summit gained recognition in the early 20th century when local mountaineers established marked hiking paths and installed the first wooden summit cross.

The Lighthouse of Humanity monument at Gibacht represents international cooperation between German and Czech communities through shared outdoor recreational activities.

The mountain features a 9.1-kilometer circular hiking trail that begins at the mountain inn, passing through notable landmarks including Pfennigfelsen and Kreuzfelsen.

The Gibacht area transforms into a ski resort during winter, with three prepared slopes covering 4.5 kilometers and a modernized T-bar lift installed in 2017.
