Holiday tour of Altenberg/Osterzgebirge, to Kahleberg, Zinnwald, Raupennest, back to Altenberg. Temperature 10 degrees, sometimes sun and clouds and cold wind 🌬 Moderate tour without much effort, always along the ridge path. Nice wide paths, groomed for cross-country skiers in winter.🌲🥾🎒📷😊

Where yesterday it was still around 30 degrees, today we had just a refreshing 17. And when the rain stopped... what wonderful air and really good visibility. 👍🏻

The high moor in Georgenfeld was my destination today, but there were countless blueberries behind the summer toboggan run in Altenberg. Again and again I took breaks to eat them. The icing on the cake was a blueberry cake in the berry tavern. I can recommend this stop, the landlady bakes the cake and freshly prepares waffles with ice cream. …

November 28, 2025,Runde bei Altenberg über den Kahleberg

Our hiking friend Hans led us on this beautiful hike. Upon our arrival in Altenberg, the entire landscape was still shrouded in mist, and the temperature was just slightly above freezing. The sun struggled to break through, but by late afternoon it had finally emerged victorious. For someone living in the flat Elbe Valley near Dresden, the snow-covered mountain forests …

Parked the car in a parking lot on Rehefelder Straße on the way up to Kahleberg, then up to Kahleberg, enjoyed the view over Altenberg, then went past the biathlon arena towards Georgenfelder Hochmoor, left the moor on the right and up to …

We actually wanted to go to the Cafe Hochmoor but unfortunately we could only do that with a reservation... it had been closed for 30 years. I wanted to try the famous cake there... we have to go there again this week... the hike was wonderful in the beautiful weather. The entrance fee and the short walk in the Hochmoor …

Beautiful winter world in the Eastern Ore Mountains near Zinnwald. Lots of activity on the cross-country ski trails. These are closed to pedestrians, however (so if you stick to this as well as we did, there aren't that many paths left for hiking)! But that didn't matter. Our goal was to enjoy the winter world up here again and we …
