The Spitzberg, close to the German border, gets its name from its double-peaked shape. The route up the 723 metre-high mountain in the eastern Ore Mountains is mostly unmarked, which is why we recommend downloading the offline maps. From the top of the striking peak, you can enjoy marvellous views of the surrounding landscape.
