Nice destination with Elbe ferry. No problem with a 9 euro ticket and S1 from Dresden 🙃

A very nice view. It is possible to take the ferry to the other side of the Elbe near this point. There is also a large parking lot from which you can go hiking.

Very valuable culturally and historically.
Plan at least 1/2 day. There is a lot to discover.
Arrival by S-Bahn from Dresden to Königstein and then take the Festungskraxsler up. A must for first-time visitors.
