Schwarzwassertal, Protected natural area in Marienberg, Germany
The Schwarzwassertal extends between Kühnhaide and Pobershau, featuring dense forests, walking paths, and natural rock formations along the Black Pockau river.
The German government established this nature reserve in 2003 to safeguard the local ecosystems and maintain the natural characteristics of the Ore Mountains region.
The reserve incorporates segments of the Kammweg trail system, connecting visitors to traditional hiking routes through the Ore Mountains of Saxony.
Free parking areas are available at both ends of the valley, with the Kühnhaide lot near Pension Schwarzwassertal and another at Hinterer Grund in Pobershau.
The Nonnenfelsen, a prominent rock formation within the reserve, rises above the valley floor and serves as a destination for rock climbing activities.
