Former railway line, now a hiking trail. From the path you have a wonderful view of the surrounding area. The route was not called the Ore Mountain Panorama Railway for nothing.

The Zwönitz-Scheibenberg railway was a branch line in Saxony. The route, also known as the Ore Mountain Panorama Railway or Upper Ore Mountain View Railway, ran from Zwönitz via Beierfeld and Elterlein to Disc Mountain. Most of the route was dismantled in 1947 as reparations for the Soviet Union. The remainder of the line between Elterlein and Scheibenberg was closed in the 1960s.
