07.06.2026 Besuch des Festes "150 Jahre Muldentalbahn" am Bahnhof in Wechselburg
Na, das passt doch. Erst am gestrigen Sonnabend der Start zum Abwandern der gesamten Bahnstrecke der Muldentalbahn ab Wurzen und heute der Besuch des Bahnhoffestes zu Ehren des 150jährigen Bestehens dieser Bahnstrecke. Das war ganz toll und wirklich interessant. Gespendet habe ich ganz nebenbei auch etwas für den Erhalt des…

If the railway were to be put back into operation, that would be very, very nice!! By the way, I have already cycled on the cycle path (photo 22).

erste kleine Wanderung 2026- Vorwandern Muldentalbahn
Das nennt man wohl "Vorwandern". Neben den ehemaligen Bimmelbahnen laufe ich ja auch ganz gerne mal auf alten Normalspuren. Ich hab mir mal die landschaftlich sehr schöne Muldentalbahn ausgesucht. Sie verlief einst von Wurzen bis Glauchau. Diese traumhaft schöne Bahnstrecke stillzulegen, war ein Verbrechen an der Bahnkultur.
Das war heute…

@Dirk I'm excited to hear your reports and see your photos when you hike the entire 85 km from Wurzen to Glauchau.
Do you know the Roßwein–Niederwiesa railway line? or have you already hiked here? I found the section to Hainichen very interesting with the many bridges.

Well, the work is done. It's a shame, really; this railway line truly deserved the name "Panoramabahn". I've had the opportunity to experience some very beautiful, but also exciting tours. The distant views were breathtaking, and the hikes around the old, but unfortunately destroyed, steel bridges were

Why does Komoot annoy me so much? First, I go to the trouble of adding a comment to each photo, as usual. Then all the photos are gone. Then all the photos are duplicated, one with my comment and one without. Now I've painstakingly deleted all the duplicate photos without a comment. I hope everything

Since I couldn't find a suitable parking space near the other side of the Göckeritztal Bridge, I once again had to "clean up the field from behind." So, the start isn't at the abutment of the Göckeritztal Bridge, but conveniently at the actual destination, Elterlein Station. The start is at 12 noon today

This time, part 4 of the former Erzgebirge Observation Railway Zwönitz-Scheibenberg is on my itinerary. It's the section between Beierfeld station and Grünhain station up to the Göckeritztal Bridge. The route starts at the Beierfeld station car park. Unfortunately, the only accessible route is the loading

This time, the third part of the Zwönitz-Scheibenberg panoramic route. We start at Bernsbach station. My planned destination today is Beierfeld station. And off we go. Right near the station, on the other side of the street, is the station restaurant. We now walk directly along the railway line. Image

Today, finally, we're continuing the tour from May 2nd. Since we can't start at the Fuchsbrunn Bridge (no parking), we're clearing the field from behind, so to speak, and, for once, walking in the opposite direction from the nearest train station, Bernsbach, back to the Fuchsbrunn Bridge.
So we're starting

The narrow-gauge railways will have to wait a little longer. Today, it's standard gauge again.
After unfortunately missing the anniversary festivities yesterday, May 1st, and already feeling extremely annoyed, I wanted to at least complete the first part of the tour I'd planned weeks ago today. It's truly

On October 3, 2023, during my last hike along the Weißwasser-Forst railway line, I passed this hiking car park on the way back and wanted to come back here again sometime. Today was the day, and we set off from the Teichstraße hiking car park. Off we went to the Eulower Ponds. What immediately struck

I almost forgot to post this beautiful tour online. But it's too beautiful to pass up.
This time, a loop near Nossen. We start at the forest parking lot near the old castle mill. We hike along the Lerchenweg (Lerchenweg) along the Freiberger Mulde river. We also have the Döbeln-Roßwein-Nossen railway

What a coincidence. I've told you before—railroads have a magical attraction for me. Last night, I had the following plans: a visit to the Nimbschen monastery ruins, followed by a leisurely hike to Kleinbothen and Großbothen. Done. With no ulterior motives regarding railroads. Lunch and coffee break

We'll simply start in Bad Muskau at the old train station. Unfortunately, it's fenced off, and we can't access the area. At least the station is a listed building, and the owner can't do whatever he wants. Negotiations with the town of Bad Muskau were unsuccessful at the time, as they originally wanted

Since I was once again in the southern industrial park in BED on business, I used the time between trips to take a stroll to Linda. I really wanted to see the amazing old, rusty viaduct in BED, the former railway line from Himmelsfürst to Langenau. Oh, what a fantastic old structure! I definitely have
