Absolute recommendation:
Get the tower key from the snack bar below the tower and go up to the tower 🥰. The view is worth it 😍.

Garlic soup should be a must-eat on the Forststeig. Otherwise, take a short break to warm up and enjoy views.

What do you do when you climb the Schneeberg for the 6th time because the weather is wonderful, clear and windless?
You are looking for a new, unknown path. This time it led over the cliffs along the north side to the viewpoints at Musikant and Bubenik. From there we went on the usual route to the observation tower and …

Global warming in Saxony: Today, September 18, the first autumn storm is raging and the rain is lashing against the windows in the morning. But the weather app reported that the ☀️ should shine at 8. So let's go bohemian ☺️. However, the weather app lied. Around 10, when we were standing at the parking lot in Sneznik, it was …

A beautiful mountain with a magnificent view. It was only a small but wonderful tour. At 34 degrees with a little strong wind it was very bearable. Unfortunately only a small tour. But enough with this view 😍👍🙋 ♂️

From the car park (card payment at the machine) at the hotel, it is not a particularly strenuous climb. The last part up the mountain is a bit steeper.
The tower and the snack bar are open from April to October.

Sometimes nature does what it wants. And that's a good thing. I actually wanted to photograph a beautiful sunrise on the high Schneeberg, but thick clouds prevented visibility. Only later could I guess where the sun was now. Nevertheless, the high Schneeberg is a worthwhile destination, because from the huge plateau you have endless panoramic views.
