Itinerary description

Circuit Karl-Ludwig haus- Heukuppe-Gamseck- Habsburghaus from free parking in Preiner Gscheid (you can eat and get a drink at the parking too). A nice walk with beautiful views of the limestone range and Schneeberg. Long and easy with good elevation gain so good condition needed but otherwise nothing challenging. Well signed, one can go without a GPS. Next time I would book the Habsburghaus for one night and explored more the next day, shame I did not know the place was dog friendly. Good beer too and friendly staff speaking English!
