    "The town is the terminus of the steam-powered Zittau narrow-gauge railway and is located at the foot of the Oybin mountain in a valley basin of the Zittau Mountains formed by the Goldbach. The district Brückendorf is the only German town located on the south side of the mountain range. The surrounding mountains are the Hochwald (at 749 m above sea level . NN highest mountain in the municipality and second highest mountain in the Zittau Mountains), the Töpfer, the Ameisenberg, the Brandhöhe and the Scharfenstein." de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oybin

    Oybin is always worth a visit. The village surrounded by mountains has its special charms. The narrow-gauge railway, the Oybin mountain with its castle ruins, the small mountain swimming pool and the many small restaurants are highly recommended. I would particularly like to recommend the Small Castle. This cozy restaurant near the train station is located in the oldest building in Oybin. If you like brawn with fried potatoes, you will definitely get your money's worth here. In addition, Oybin is always an excellent starting point for wonderful tours in and around the Zittau Mountains.
