Pond Near Weitersglashütte

Highlight • Lake

You do not expect this beautiful pond. A short detour from the path and it opens up the view of a black water surface.

Highlight • Mountain Hut

I haven't met anyone here in the summer, but in the winter when people go cross-country skiing the place is usually full. And: there's a webcam opposite ;-)

High Moor Trail to the Little Kranichsee

Highlight • Trail

The Kleiner Kranichsee (Czech: Malé jeřábí jezero) is one of the most important raised bogs in the Ore Mountains. In Saxony, the moor has been under nature protection since 1939. Today it is the main component of the more extensive NSG Kleiner Kranichsee, Butterwegmoor and Henneberger Hang nature reserve. The Czech part of the moor was placed under state protection in 1962 on 6.02 hectares as a nature reserve.
The raised bog is located at an altitude of 930 meters above sea level on a clearing in the high forest southwest of Johanngeorgenstadt. The border between Germany and the Czech Republic runs through the raised bog.
