Wolkenstein Castle is a high medieval castle that was first mentioned in documents in the 13th century. The town and castle stand on gneiss rocks 80 meters above the Zschopau valley. Wolkenstein owes its existence to the "Berggeschrei" (the cries of the mountain), that is, the discovery of the ore deposits. The settlement and ore mining is older than that of Annaberg-Buchholz.

The deep valley with exposed gneiss is the result of the erosion of the Zschopau, which rises on the Fichtelberg and has been flowing in a northerly direction with a greater gradient since the uplift of the Ore Mountains block in the Tertiary period, and flows into the Freiberg Mulde near Döbeln. Steep, often bizarre rock faces are created on steep slopes by the increased flow speed. The most impressive formation is probably an overhanging cliff.

A beautiful circular route that is not only fun for children because of its many wooden figures.

Burg Wolkenstein, commonly called Schloss Wolkenstein, is a high medieval castle in the town of Wolkenstein in the Erzgebirge district in Saxony (Germany). Since 1963 there is u. a. the Selva Castle Museum.

On a hike along the Forest Spirit Trail, explorers young and old will meet the frog prince, the owl, the dwarf and many carved figures and mythical creatures. All are lovingly cared for. But it's not scary, because it shows friendly wooden companions carved from tree trunks. Every year the forest spirit family receives “offspring”. The new forest spirits are “baptized” and given funny names. From the circular hiking trail it is worth taking a detour to the Stülpnerhöhle and further towards Greifensteine. From the viewing rock of the seven bizarre granite rocks, a picturesque panoramic view opens up to the Erzgebirge ridge. A great signposted hiking area, highly recommended. 👌

here is just a small part of it, every figure would be a highlight

I visited the castle on a via ferrata tour. Well restored, not too built up.

Stunning views even in the rain
