Hike around Wolkenstein through the romantic rocky world of Wolkensteiner Schweiz, the Warmbad spa gardens, across mining landscapes to the Zeisigstein viewpoint.

Markings: EB red - yellow - blue - yellow - green - yellow

From the market (town hall tunnel) into the Zschopau valley (marked red) and soon uphill through the romantic rocky world of Wolkenstein Switzerland, we reach the Warmbad spa gardens with drinking pavilion. Using the yellow markings to the "Palmbaum", we are now accompanied by material witnesses to the history of mining into the "Himmelreich". Following the blue marked E3 in the direction of Großrückerswalde, a magnificent view of the Annaberger Land with table mountains and peaks on the ridge soon opens up. At Vorwerk Huth, we change to the yellow markings. The way back to the town center of Wolkenstein is crowned by the Zeisigstein (green marker from Vorwerk Kohlau) and the Wolfsschlucht (yellow marker after crossing the Eschenbach).
