Worthwhile hike to the two dams Neunzehnhain 1 and 2

The Neunzehnhain Dam was built between 1911 and 1914 in the Bornwald near Pockau-Lengefeld in the Ore Mountains. It was put into operation shortly before the outbreak of the First World War. Due to the rapid industrialization of the Chemnitz area at the end of the 19th century and the enormous population growth of that time, water consumption rose rapidly. The Neunzehnhain Dam, which was only inaugurated in 1908, could no longer meet the water demand just three years later - and was therefore given a larger sister to accompany it.

From up here you have a beautiful view of Grießbach

The Markus Röhling mining smithy, the hut house and the horse sledge at the Markus Röhling Treibeschacht are in an idyllic location directly on the mining trail. The hut house was first built on this site in 1768. The mining smithy was built in 1773 and was expanded in 1785 with a horse sledge. In 1857 the mine was closed down and the horse sledge was later demolished. The area has been run by the “Markus Röhling Treibeschacht” association since 1999. Hikers and day tourists can enjoy a good drink and a meal on weekends (during the week by appointment) and visit the horse sledge newly built in 2000 and exhibitions.

A beautiful viewing platform, which, according to a plaque in the refuge, is 180 m above the Zschopau.

The almost closed shelters here are a good thing, especially in winter.

The Scharfensteiner Kanzel is located on a rocky outcrop high above the Zschopau. Also called the Bastei of the Zschopautal, it rises about 80 meters above the riverbed. From here you have a wonderful view of neighboring hills and surrounding towns. If you want to enjoy a little more view nearby, you should hike a little further to Devil's Nose.

You should agree on the opening times - you can find contradictory information on the internet.
