    From up here you have a wonderful view of Tharandt, and there is also a few seats.

    Hiking

    The Zeisigstein is an outstanding rock outcrop that offers a beautiful view and at the same time represents a fascinating habitat for extremely adapted plants. It is part of a unique area that the forest visionary Johann Heinrich Cotta created in 1811, which is considered the birth of modern forestry science.

    Viewpoint – Zeisigstein in the Tharandt Forest Botanical Garden.

    Information:

    It rises approximately 80 meters above the Zeisiggrund valley and was formed because the porphyry rock at this location is somewhat harder than the surrounding area, causing it to weather and erode. It is a viewpoint with seating.
