Rabenberg

Rabenberg is a mountain in the Erzgebirge range standing at 913 meters high and covered by dense forests. The area features several marked hiking trails that run through the slopes.

The area became important during Saxony's silver mining era, which shaped the growth of surrounding villages from the Middle Ages onward. This mining tradition formed the development and settlement of the entire region over many centuries.

The walking paths on the mountain follow old trade routes where regional craftspeople moved goods between villages. These routes still shape how the landscape looks today and show how people have traveled through this area for many generations.

The mountain is accessible from Breitenbrunn via marked hiking trails that are easy to find. During the months from December through March, expect snow and bring appropriate equipment.

From the summit you can see into both German and Czech parts of the Erzgebirge, since the mountain sits at the natural border between the two countries. This border location lets visitors look across two regions at once.
