    Hiking

    The single-seater chairlift up the Kleiner Fichtelberg hasn't been operating since 2016. The wooden seats now sway in the wind, and the entire facility is slowly deteriorating. The chairlift was built in 1963. It covered a distance of 734 meters and climbed 185 meters in about thirteen minutes. At peak times, it transported 360 people per hour to the secondary summit of Saxony's highest mountain. The former mountain station also displays the exact altitude—with a nod to the Erzgebirge region—in a sign: "2412 half meters."

    Unfortunately the old lift is out of order...

    From here you have a beautiful view of Klínovec. The refuge at the old chairlift invites you to rest.
