Bärenstein

Like the Pöhlberg, the Bärenstein mainly consists of basalt, on the north side you can see that in an old quarry. Speaking of which, the view from the Bärenstein down to the Cranzahl dam is impressive. If you climb the 30 meter high observation tower, you can see the Fichtelberg and Klínovec in the Czech Republic.

A summit, which is approached in the context of the Stoneman Challenge, but is not only interesting for mountain bikers.

Nice climb to the stamping point

First easy leg of the Stonman from Oberwiesenthal ...

Beautiful viewpoint over the Erzgebirge, Fichtelberg u. Cranzal dam, right downhill over narrow rocky single trail

Great view to Dam Cranzahl

Next summit after the Fichtelberg, demanding Aspfaltauffahrt, forces. If enough time, you can enjoy the beautiful view.

It was the crowning glory for our mountain bike tour. After the driveway enjoyed a cold ice cream and then the view.

At the end of the steep access road, the checkpoint is clearly visible on the right below the parking lot.

Checkpoint from the Stoneman Miriquidi MTB after a very steep driveway

if you drive the stoneman miriquidi, you have to stamp these points to get his card. Point 1, from Oberwiesenthal has at the end about 10% but goes. But watch out - there are 8 more to follow.

nice climb to the "summit" but if you want to have a drink, you should go to the next summit ...

View to Weipert and view of the dam Cranzahl on the right there is a good singletrack.

At this stage divert attention - forestry work - attention: about 4 km after Weispflog Hotel dangerous departure, wavy surface and then turn left, drive slowly, then you can let it run again. An Irri overtakes us, comes with speed and almost lands on the tree. So be careful !

One of the important checkpoints on the track

Stoneman stamp on the Bear Mountain

If you start in Oberwiesenthal, this is the first stamp on the Stoneman Miriquidi

Stamp of the Stoneman on the Bear Stone. After the steep ascent you can take a deep breath and enjoy the view from the observation tower.

Good rest stop. Do not forget stamping

Great view on the waypoint

A must for every mountain biker 👌

The last 100 meters of altitude over the tar road are strenuous, but at the top you can reward yourself with a great all-round view of the observation tower and then with a short, nice trail descent. Simply use the path that is drawn parallel to the road

The Bärenstein is one of the striking basalt mountains in the Ore Mountains. With a height of 898m, it offers a great view!

nice ascent .. luckily on asphalt ... you have earned your 🍻 when you are up there
