View of Oberwiesenthal

Highlight • Viewpoint

Ore Mountains near the Czech border. The Fichtelberg cable car takes you up to the top of the Fichtelberg, which offers ski slopes and views of the surrounding valley. The Gabriele Kohlisch Tour, a circular hiking trail, leads through forests to the Black Pond. The marine aquarium is home to corals, seahorses and sand eels. Nearby is the neo-Gothic Martin Luther Church, built in 1866.

Kreuzbrück Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

Small gneiss rock block at 1000 m above sea level. The height of the rock is not enough to enjoy the view over the spruces.

Fichtelberghaus Restaurant & Hotel

Highlight • Restaurant

The Fichtelberg is the highest mountain in Saxony. At 1,214 meters, it is also one of the highest German low mountain ranges. There are all sorts of activities for you up here. After the strenuous ascent you can relax in the Fichtelberghaus. There was already a restaurant up here in 1888. A fire destroyed the original building. A new building was constructed in the 1960s and remodeled in 1999. From the 30 meter high tower you have a great view of the entire Ore Mountains. By the way, you can also stay overnight here. hotel-fichtelberghaus.de

Fichtelberg in the Erzgebirge/Vogtland Nature Park

Highlight • Summit

The Fichtelberg in the Ore Mountains, at 1,215 meters, is Saxony's highest mountain and a true highlight for nature and sports enthusiasts.

From Oberwiesenthal – Germany's highest town – you can reach the summit via numerous hiking trails, or comfortably by the historic cable car or by car. At the top, an impressive panorama awaits you, stretching across the Ore Mountains and far into the Czech Republic.

In summer, the Fichtelberg is an ideal starting point for hikes, mountain bike tours, and excursions into the adjacent nature park. In winter, it transforms into Saxony's largest ski resort with slopes, cross-country trails, and snowboard runs. A visit to the mountain restaurant with its panoramic terrace perfectly rounds off the trip.

August 9, 2022,Kreuzbrückfelsen – Fichtelberghaus Runde von Oberwiesenthal

One of the family wanted to know about the Zschopauquelle💦, the other wanted to take another look at the Republic😉, so today we went on new paths around and over the Fichtelberg🥾 😇.

"Arzgebirg, how crazy are you!" could normally be at this point, but due to the time of year it is still quite bleak and today there was also a thick soup of fog that remained very persistent on the mountain.
We briefly emigrated to the Czech side, but the journeymen there all seemed rather wooden and cold. ;)
In order …
