Discover Neumark: Outdoor pool and Vogtland

Neumark lies on the edge of the Vogtland. Three specific points of reference can help you choose where to stay: the B 173 and two rail lines, a church in the town centre, and the Neumark outdoor pool. This can help you decide whether transport connections, the town centre or a visit to the swimming pool is the main focus of your trip.

Neumark as a base for your trip

Neumark is connected by the B 173 and lies on the Hof–Leipzig and Hof–Görlitz rail lines. The road and the two rail connections offer different starting points for planning your trip. Which one suits you depends on your route and travel date, so check the latest information when planning. When choosing a hotel, you can first decide which mode of transport will determine your journey and what matters most for your stay.

A church stands in the town centre and serves as a landmark for finding your way around the centre. Together with its transport connections, it gives a straightforward first impression of Neumark: a place on the edge of the Vogtland whose key points of reference relate both to the town centre and to accessibility.

Outdoor pool with swimming and sports facilities

The Neumark outdoor pool has around 600 m² of water area and a sunbathing lawn of around 4,500 m². Facilities include a 25-metre slide, swimming and non-swimmer areas, and a baby pool. The grounds also have volleyball, table tennis, football and a playground. This makes a clear distinction between activities in the water and other facilities on the grounds. The outdoor pool is open seasonally; check opening hours and prices before your visit.

The wider Vogtland destination

The wider Vogtland destination has further cultural and landscape attractions to offer. The following examples provide an overview of the region and broaden the picture beyond Neumark’s town centre.

Ski jumping and instrument making

The Sparkasse Vogtland Arena Klingenthal is one of Europe’s most modern large ski jumping hills. An experience railway takes visitors to the 32-metre-high inrun tower, which offers spectacular views over Klingenthal. The Musical Instrument Museum Markneukirchen displays the world’s largest playable violin. Musical instruments have been made in the Upper Vogtland for more than 350 years. Ski jumping and instrument making thus represent two distinct cultural themes in the Vogtland.

Parks, landmarks and trails

The Royal Spa Gardens of Bad Elster combine extensive historic parks with architecturally significant spa buildings. Bad Elster has ten mineral springs and natural moorland peat. The Göltzsch Viaduct offers a different architectural highlight: it is one of the two largest brick bridges in the world. The 225-kilometre Vogtland Panorama Trail is also part of the region’s offering. These places and themes suit different interests: historic parks, striking landmarks or a longer trail.

Cycling and regional cuisine

For cyclists in the Vogtland, most cycle paths are close to bus or train stops. Bicycles can be carried free of charge on public transport in the Vogtland, subject to available vehicle capacity. Keep this capacity restriction in mind when planning a trip by bicycle.

Local cuisine is another way to connect with the region. Green dumplings are made from raw, grated potatoes and are a Vogtland speciality. At Gündel’s Kulturstall in Reichenbach, visitors can regularly take part in potato tastings; a potato market is held there in autumn. Check the latest dates before visiting.
