Located in the ”Erzgebirge”, near the Czech border, below the ’’, the highest elevation in East , Oberwiesenthal offers ten graded downhill courses across all levels of difficulty make up a total of 15.5 km of slope and around 75 km of varied and interesting trails. But a winter holiday is about more than just skiing. With toboggan runs, hikes for winter boots and snow shoes, snow tubing, skat- ing and opportunities to ride in a horse-drawn sled, there is plenty to do. For a special day out, take a trip on the Fichtel- bergbahn, ’s highest-situated narrow-gauge railway. On the 120-year-old steam railway, you can watch the stun- ning winter landscape go by ... at “breakneck” speeds of up to 25 km per hour.
