Narrow passage on Bergringweg, Oybin

Highlight • Gorge

We return to the cemetery and take the circular hiking trail, which leads us further across the plateau.

We walk along the high cliffs, the slope steep beside us, past the inn, sometimes very narrow between the rocks.

In the morning the sky was foggy and it remained cloudy all day in Oybin. Nevertheless, we were able to enjoy the changing colors of the leaves. In Zittau it was 18°C and sunny again.

A truly impressive facility. We came across it by chance and haven't regretted the visit for a minute. Even the rain didn't stop it.

A visit to the facility is highly recommended. Admission € 8.00 for adults. Especially when the weather is nice, you should plan enough time (at least 2 hours) if you want to see everything and enjoy the views.

A wonderful castle tour with Brunhilde, the maid. A magnificent castle with panoramic views – even in changing weather conditions of sun, wind, and rain.

380 steps from the village to the north plateau, but there are a few more stairs and paths there. On the mountain, in addition to the interesting monastery and castle ruins, there is an extraordinary mountain cemetery and behind it a beautiful viewing terrace (self-service).
Admission castle & monastery 8 euros, definitely worth it.
Unfortunately, there is not enough time …
