Directions

The tour starts at the Annaberg-Buchholz market. The route leads right through the old town past St. Anne's Church, the Manufactory of Dreams and the market. Past the Frohnau hammer, with its fully functional 17th century hammer mill, the route leads to Schlettau. Past the castle, the tour continues along the route of the Erzgebirge scenic railroad to Scheibenberg. The unique basalt columns "Orgelpfeifen" and the observation tower can be seen from afar. Via the Emmlerweg trail, we enjoy a fantastic panoramic view of the thousand-metre peaks of Keilberg (1,244 m), Fichtelberg (1,215 m) and Auersberg (1,018 m), as well as Raschau-Markersbach with its modern and historic bridge and the "Oberbecken" reservoir of the Markersbach pumped-storage power station, before reaching Schwarzenberg, the pearl of the Erzgebirge. Here it is worth visiting the old town with its castle, church and fountain with Meissen carillon.For the return journey, we recommend the Erzgebirgsbahn or the Erzgebirgische Aussichtsbahn.
