Tips

Information board accessible to interested hikers on site at the fence. Admission to the viewpoint only with guided tours. Information on this is available from the tourist office and the mining museum. Guided tours take place regularly.

The Pinge is a mining monument in Altenberg and was built in 1620. It characterizes the landscape and has a special historical significance due to the history of its origin.

On guided tours, it is possible to get behind the gate and step onto the viewing platform, from which one can look down into the Pinge.

Unfortunately, the Altenberger Pinge is fenced off, so you can't see much. But if you want, there are guided tours. Just ask at the tourist center or the mining museum.

It's been pretty overgrown since I was a kid. You can only get closer with a guided tour.
