    Roadbook

    The starting point of the hike is the valley station of the Fichtelberg cable car. Following Vierenstraße, you reach the Rotes Vorwerk car park. Past the Jens Weißflog apartment hotel, you walk along the Yellow Path towards Neudorf. You follow Pförtelstraße to the excursion point Siebensäure inn. Towards Kurort Oberwiesenthal, you walk back along Pförtelstraße to Gifthüttenstraße. Down the clearing path past the Waldeck guesthouse, you reach Philosophenweg. It leads you under the cables of the Fichtelberg cable car to the ski jumps and the Schönjungferngrund nature reserve. From there, it's just a stone’s throw back to the valley station.
