Bayerisch Eisenstein, until 1951 just Eisenstein () is a village and a municipality in the Regen district, in Bavaria, Germany.
Bayerisch Eisenstein is located within the Bayerischer Wald, and borders the Bavarian Forest National Park (Germany's first national park, established in 1970). The town is both a winter and a summer resort. In the summer, walking in the forest and mountains is popular. In winter, winter sports prevail, concentrated around the GroÃÂer Arber mountain.
It is one of a trio of connected places in the area. The other two are à ½elezná Ruda and à  piÃÂák (part of à ½elezná Ruda) , both in the Czech Republic. à ½elezná Ruda lies 2 kilometres northeast from Bayerisch Eisenstein. The town's railway station is split by the border.
Today, trains run to both halves of the station from the respective countries. The local German train service, the Waldbahn, also continues across the border to à  piÃÂák in the Czech Republic.
Bayerisch Eisenstein lies on the Bavarian Forest railway from Plattling to Plzeà Â.
In 2006, Bayerisch Eisenstein and à ½elezná Ruda signed a twinning agreement.
