Planning to visit Seiffen (overnight) as part of a trip in early December. I have researched public transit and car options; both have pros and cons. The options we're considering are:
- Train to Chemnitz, store luggage for a few hours, pick up car and drive to Seiffen. The following afternoon drive to Freiberg, drop the car, and spend a night before continuing on by train.
- Train to Olbernhau, bus to Seiffen. Next day, bus to Freiberg and overnight before continuing on. This would be on a Saturday; according to current schedules buses run in the late morning and late afternoon so we'd likely opt for the late afternoon option.
If the weather turns snowy, would a car or a bus be the best option? The driver has snowy road experience so that's not an issue...but it's not exactly relaxing either! Is there something else I might be missing? We are open to other suggestions.
