Hikes in the Ore Mountains

An eventful tour through the Tharandt Forest, which lies in an ancient volcanic cauldron - a caldera - and is still considered a classic square mile of geologists.

Diese kurze Tour führt Sie südlich der Zschopau über Stock und Stein, vorbei an Zeugen mittelalterlichen Bergbaus und entlang der Zschopau. 

The path from the old town to the Müglitz provides interesting information about the planetary system, and finally Weesenstein Castle invites you to explore.

Die Strecke führt vom Stadtkern auf die umliegenden Höhenzüge der Flöhatalaue und der Nebentäler.

We hike along historic paths to the Forest Botanical Garden. A tour of the facility, which was established in 1811 and now covers 34 hectares, takes us from the woody plants of North America to Japan.

Durch bedeutende Silberfunde am Fuße des Erzgebirges entstand vor über 850 Jahren die Silberstadt Freiberg. Während der eindrucksvollen Rundwanderung begeben Sie sich auf Entdeckungsreise in das Zentrum des Silberbergbaus. 

A wealth of wood and skilled craftsmanship. Even today, Erzgebirge folk and wood art is world-famous. Born out of necessity, the families of the miners once made wooden toys as a sideline in winter. The third stage takes us to nutcrackers and smoking men - to curious places and wonderful views.

Relaxed hiking and sleeping in the middle of the forest! Let's enjoy this day. 12 kilometres and just under 300 metres of altitude give us a leisurely hiking day. We will spend the night in the middle of the forest. But don't worry - we won't spend the night in a tent, we won't need to heat up tinned soup and we won't have to fend off wild boars. Hiker-friendly hotels in the middle of the forest are inviting.

Experience your personal symphony of nature. Enjoy 12 varied stage hikes on the Vogtland Panorama Trail through the enchanting landscape of the Vogtland. The most comfortable way to do so is to take advantage of our travel offer “Hiking without luggage”.

Die erste echte Bergetappe lässt sich kurz und „schmerzlos“ auf dem direkten Weg über Klingenthal zum Aschberg bewältigen und gewährt so genügend Zeit für einen Bummel durch die Musik- und Wintersportstadt. Wer sich richtig fordern will, wählt die lange Alternative!
