    Ich bin den Jakobsweg "Silberberg" von Annaberg-Buchholz bis nach Eich - Lengenfeld gegangen. Sehr schöne Wege, man ist viel allein, schöne Begegnungen mit den Einheimischen in den Ortschaften. Tolle Kirche in Schneeberg! Der Wanderweg ist sehr gut ausgeschildert, nur selten ist die Jakobsmuschel mal verkehrt herum angebracht worden. Es gelang mir nicht überall, einen Pilgerstempel zu bekommen. Manche Kirchen oder der Gasthof, wo sich die Stempelstelle befand, waren geschlossen, als ich vorbei kam. In Grünhain gibt es im Gemeindehaus der Kirche eine Pilgerunterkunft. Und in Lößnitz wurde gerade die Kirche zur Pilgerkirche eingeweiht. Im Stempelkasten vor der Lößnitzer Kirche stehen auch zwei Telefonnummern für Übernachtungen. Da ich Montags gestartet bin, fand ich leider meist nur geschlossene Gaststätten. (oft Mo., Di., Mi. Ruhetag) Ich lief die Strecke in den Etappen Annaberg-Buchholz - Grünhain - Bad Schlema - Hundshübel (die Pension "Zum Torfstich" bietet auch an Ruhetagen Übernachtungsmöglichkeit an - am besten über E-Mail anfragen.) - Rodewisch - Eich/Lengenfeld.

    Wir sind den kompletten Weg letzte Woche in 5 Etappen abgewandert. Es ist ein wunderschöner Tag ne abwechslungsreicher Weg! Definitiv zu empfehlen. Ein Hinweis: auf dem Teilstück von Bad Schlema ist der Weg ziemlich verwuchert und zu gewachsen.

    Schöne und weitgehend gut beschilderte Tour. Leider haben wir den Weg aus Richtung Künheide durch das Zentrum von Zwönitz verloren und konnten ihn nur über die Navigation wieder finden.
