JohannesHof in the Ore Mountains of Central Saxony
A paved pitch in Bockendorf, right next to the village church and JohannesHof. Chemnitz, Dresden and Leipzig are roughly equidistant, the route here is straightforward and the area is freely accessible. Visitors sometimes encounter a cultural event at the farm. Otherwise it remains peaceful. From here, hiking and cycling trails lead into the Mid-Saxon Ore Mountains, for example along the Chemnitztal cycle route. It's about 22 kilometres to Chemnitz.1

Sights in the area1
Rabenstein Castle
This small hilltop castle on the edge of Chemnitz counts among the smallest medieval castles in Saxony; a quick walk-through that fits easily into an afternoon with children.
Chemnitz Valley Cycle Path
The trail follows the river through the Chemnitz valley, partly on an old railway line with a disused tunnel; flat and largely car-free, so it works for families too.
Chemnitz
The industrial city lies about 22 kilometres away and was European Capital of Culture in 2025; with its museums and galleries the go-to option on a rainy day.
