    In addition to the cactus garden at the town hall and the zoo, the hike also includes an ascent to the Georgfelsen, also known as the “Bastei” (“bastion”). Enjoy the view over the town and take a side trip to admire Ore Mountains woodcarvings at the Schnitz-Museum (Woodcarving Museum) in the district of Jahnsbach. The mining discovery trail and the educational trail along Thum’s narrow-gauge railway are also worth checking out.

    The route is marked white-yellow-white.

    Hallo Vivien, vielen Dank für Deine Anfrage. Der Rundweg Thum ist nicht für einen Tour mit Kinderwagen geeignet. Der Weg führt an der Thumer Bastei über eine Felstreppe ziemlich steil nach oben. Hier ist der Weg auch nur ein schmaler Steg mit seitlichen Geländern. MfG Ihre Touristinformation auf den Greifensteinen
