The Pechgraben and its tributary, the Schindelgraben, run through the areas of Hohenstein-Ernstthal and Callenberg. With a protected area of 45,706 m², they are a valuable example of natural, strongly meandering streams in the low mountain range. Due to their rarity, they are designated as a natural monument and are placed under special protection.
