Winter night owl trip

A romantic train ride

Together with the “Forellenhof” restaurant in Schmalzgrube, the Interessengemeinschaft Preßnitztalbahn e. V. offers participants an unforgettable experience, with music and storytelling provided by members of the Bergbrüderschaft Pobershau (miners’ brotherhood).

The evening begins at 19:30 in Jöhstadt. The steam train first takes you to the “Forellenhof”, where a lovingly prepared, extensive buffet with many culinary delights awaits – even outdoors if the weather permits.

After the meal, the train waiting outside the restaurant takes participants to Steinbach. There a guided torchlight walk begins to the Andreas-Gegentrum-Stolln (mine adit), accompanied by entertaining mining stories and fitting music. The return journey is again by steam train, before the event ends in Jöhstadt at around 23:30.
