Directions

The route we tested is 3.8 km long (one way). There are 98 meters of descent and 20 meters of ascent to overcome. Our well-trained "tester" completed the route without assistance. We recommend taking helpers along on the hike. If you plan to use the same route as the way back, strong friends are urgently required. If enough companions join the tour, the space exhibition can also be reached via the Tannenbergsthaler Weg towards Sieben Wege Kreuzung, then continuing via Sandiger Weg to Rautenkranzer Str. and further as described in our hike. This route is not recommended as a return path due to the steep climbs.

We start our hike at Waldpark Grünheide and follow the signposted **Vogtland Panorama Weg** towards Morgenröthe – Rautenkranz. The surface of Rautenkranzer Str., which we use, consists of a sand-slurried gravel layer. It caused no problems for our "tester." After about 1.6 km we pass the rock formation named Jungfernsprung. The Zinsbachweg coming from the left brings sediment mud onto our path during heavy rain, where assistance might be necessary. Shortly before reaching the village area of Rautenkranz, there is a 250 m long climb to master, reaching up to 7%. In the village area, the path is asphalted or paved with slabs. Via the street Am Filz, we reach federal road B283. Here we turn right onto the footpath (no lowered curb). Now we can already see the building of the space exhibition on the other side of the Zwickauer Mulde. We follow B283 to the bridge. There, we cross the Mulde and turn left into Bahnhofstraße.

After about 300 m, we have reached the German Space Exhibition. The exhibition grounds are barrier-free (except for the MIR module).
