View of Eibenstock Reservoir

You park in the parking lot at the cemetery, then it goes through the village past the church (the church tower on the right leads to the inn). If you continue at the church, you will pass the 4 chestnuts. At the next crossroads to the left up the hill to Viechzig, keep left at the crossroads, past the Nadlerhaus to the last house on the street and then the path to the end. Finally the view is done with a wonderful view of the Eibenstock and Auersberg dams, also called "Little Canada". On good days you can see the Keilberg and the Geyer transmitter tower. Of course you can also relax, there is a bench and a table. Then it goes a few meters back past the needle house and at the crossroads at the needle house left towards the forest. There are individual benches in the forest to rest. To get a view towards the dam at water level you have to walk down the path at the next sign "Outlook dam" (caution there are roots over the path and with prams you need a little perseverance). There you can get the dam and its See poor as well as the dam wall. Then it goes up the path again and right out of the forest on a normal path. After a few meters uphill to the pub and orchard. Here you can rest and let your feet dangle in the water. After the break, continue on to the next intersection. There it goes left up the mountain. When you have reached Lärchenstraße, you have a very nice view of the Auersberg (there are also benches to rest here). Just a few meters back to the parking lot and the round is done. Have fun hiking.

Parking is possible at the Goldener Hirsch.

Nice view of the lock.
