    Schöne Tour! Wegen einer Fahrradpanne kurz hinter dem Fichtelberg musste wir von Oberwiesenthal nach Chemnitz per Zug fahren, so dass wir diesen Teil nicht erleben durften. Am nächsten Tag sind wir dann die Strecke von Chemnitz über Flöha bis nach Döbeln gefahren (von dort aus dann noch nach Riesa). Das was wir gesehen haben ist wirklich sehr schön, vor allem landschaftlich. In vielerlei Hinsicht bekommt man auch noch die Blütezeit der sächischen Industrialisierung zu spüren, und Burgen gibt es auch reichlich. Wie in der Beschreibung schon angekündigt, ist die Strecke oberhalb von Flöha nur noch schlecht ausgeschildert. Mit Navi oder Karte geht es aber. Für die Auffahrt auf den Fichtelberg empfehlen wir nicht die Himmelsleiter, sondern den Philosophenweg. Runter geht es dann am besten über den (sehr steilen) Reitsteig.
