    Hiking

    The Ore Mountains/Krušné Hory form a natural border between the Bohemian Eger Valley and the Saxon Muldenland. At 1,215 meters, the Fichtelberg is the highest peak on the German side – and offers a magnificent view of the Ore Mountains/Vogtland Nature Park.

    The nature park covers almost 1,500 square kilometers and is one of the most densely populated mountain regions in Europe. Numerous hiking trails and cultural offerings invite you to discover this impressive landscape on the German-Czech border.
