Erzgebirgs-Kammwegführer Tetschen (Schneeberg) - Erzgebirge - Asch (Hainberg). Mit einer Karte des Kammweges

Designed for the intrepid hiker, this early‑20th‑century guide walks you along the historic Erzgebirgskammweg, the ridge that stretches from Tetschen (Schneeberg) to Asch (Hainberg). The route follows the natural watershed at elevations between 700 and 1 200 metres, offering uninterrupted panoramic views of forested slopes, heathlands and distant valleys. A full trek takes roughly nine to ten days, demanding sturdy boots, weather‑proof clothing and a readiness for occasional detours around private lands.

The booklet supplies clear trail symbols and colour codes, a detailed ridge‑line map, and concise notes on water sources, shelter points and local inns such as Hoher Schneeberg, Kupferberg and Fichtelberg. Practical hints cover provisions, the need for self‑sufficiency in the sparsely served mountain sections, and suggested rest spots when weather turns sour. Though compact, the guide captures the scent of spruce, the crisp high‑altitude air and the quiet joy of walking a line that has long marked the border between Saxony and Bohemia.
