The long circular hike leads over the Klingenberg dam, along the Wild Weißeritz to the Edle Krone station, the most beautiful station in Saxony, and back over the Tharander Forest to the start at Colmnitz station. Enchanting distant views, romance and mining history in the valleys provide variety along the way.
