Stoneman Miriquidi Road

A classic road-bike loop across the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge/Krušné hory) on the Germany–Czech border. Expect long climbs, fast ridge rollers, and mostly smooth asphalt, with the odd short stretch of cobbles or gravel. The route links mountain towns like Oberwiesenthal and Boží Dar and brushes the high points around Fichtelberg and Klínovec for big views and cool summit air.

Do it in one big day or split it over 2–3. You can start anywhere on the loop and refuel easily—bakeries, gasthofs, and shops pop up regularly. There are a few busier connectors, so early starts are handy. Weather can switch quickly up high, so bring a layer and lights.

If you’re into steady climbing, quiet forest roads, and a bit of challenge, this one delivers. Smooth tarmac, border-hopping vibes, and classic Erzgebirge scenery from start to finish.
