“The Ore Mountains classic” – miners’ parade and Christmas market in Schwarzenberg

Climb aboard and enjoy an unforgettable steam train journey through the wintry Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge). Look forward to visiting the traditional Christmas market and the unique Schwarzenberger Bergparade (miners' parade), a Christmas classic.

The historic steam train takes you on a picturesque journey into what will hopefully be an enchanting winter landscape. Enjoy the ride through snowy forests and idyllic villages as you draw ever closer to the magic of Christmas.

On arrival in Schwarzenberg, the festively decorated Christmas market awaits you with its traditional stalls, handcrafted treasures and delicious treats. Immerse yourself in the pre-Christmas atmosphere, let festive music accompany you and discover the unique craftsmanship of the Ore Mountains.

A special highlight is the miners' parade, in which miners in historic costume march through the town with torches, singing and instruments. This unique custom takes you back to times gone by and lends the experience a very special sparkle.

Enjoy the return journey in the cosy steam train as you look back on the day and watch the many lights of the Ore Mountains glide past in the relaxed evening atmosphere. Our bistro team will spoil you with home-made food, home-made mulled wine and other drinks.
