They begin their first stage on an idyllic path. You leave Oberwiesenthal on the old post road and hike to Bozi Dar (Gottesgab) across the German/Czech border on the Anton Günther Weg. Through the Gottesgaber peat bog it goes to the foot of the Spitzberg, at 1.115m the third highest mountain in the Ore Mountains. Forest paths lead to the peak of Plesivec, whose lookout tower offers a unique panoramic view of the Ore Mountains. Then it's down the valley to Abertamy.
400 m ascent - 420 m descent
Overnight place: Abertamy/Sel.
Quiet forest paths lead you back over the border to Germany to the holiday resort of Johanngeorgenstadt. The path crosses the Plattenberg, on the flanks of which collapsed mining tunnels and gorges created in this way can be found. The Wolfsbinge, a collapsed mining tunnel from the 18th century, which is now a gorge created in this way, can be visited via a detour. Down the valley it goes via Potucky to Johanngeorgenstadt.

You leave the former mining town and today's health resort on the Anton-Günther-Weg. On an idyllic path on an old post road, it goes into the forest. Along the border between Saxony and the Czech Republic it goes to the village of Halbmeiler. On the way, the memorial of an old border post with a guard hut and barrier reminds us of the times of Saxony and Bohemia. Today's milestone is reached in Rittersgrün.
