Hiking as you desire:
Since we are wide open in contrast to the rest of the Erz mountains in Lauenstein, it is simply ideal to go hiking. Large differences in elevation must not be mastered. Well marked hiking paths start in front of the door and have romantic names like the Saxon elevations or Eiersteig. Benches invite you to rest, the house mountain Geisingberg offers a stunning view, the picturesque wild park with local and alp-land animals can be reached on foot, the famous Saxon Switzerland is located right behind the door, this region is simply unique and diverse...
Events:
Even if it is peaceful in Lauenstein, there are still a few attractive events throughout the year. During the winter the Altenberg races invite you with experienced pilots - a special type of experience. The Geisinger Ski and Ice carnival is famous for the region. A highlight are the Lauenstein culture days that occur during the second weekend of September. In addition to this are exhibitions in the Easter Erz Mountain museum and events in the castle and church that invite a wide audience to Lauenstein. The annual concert from the 'Sandstone and Music' festival in the church is a highlight. The wild park attracts with Easter or Pentecost festivals, summer Indian camps, herbal or apple markets. In the beginning of October, when it starts to get cooler, there are ideal conditions for training sled dogs in Oberbärenburg. Experience dozens of huskies in a special atmosphere.
Erz mountains in bright lights:
Spring, summer, fall and winter - all seasons are beautiful.
