• Danger posed by deadwood in the lower part of the mountain trail: There is an increased risk of falling trees in the lower part of the mountain trail due to standing deadwood. We recommend taking the Erlsgrund and Winterbergstraße routes instead. Areas with a lot of standing deadwood should be avoided, especially in windy, rainy, or snowy conditions. Further information and a marked detour can be found at: https://nationalpark-saechsische-schweiz.de/warnungen/bergsteig
