In perfect hiking weather 🌤😎, we headed to Frauenstein on Sunday, first to the Gottfried Silbermann Museum (where you can also get tickets for the castle ruins) and then up the Schlossberg to the Frauenstein Castle and Castle ruins.
We continued via Kleinbobritzsch and Hartmannsdorf to the Lehnmühle Dam, past the Körnermühle guesthouse, and through Reichenau back to Frauenstein.
