Beyond the Horizon

September 18, 2023

Very few places in Saxon Switzerland can compete with the magic and attraction of the Schrammstein viewpoint. This point, which you reach after a very challenging climb, rewards every hiker with an incomparable view of the wild, jagged rock formations of the Schrammsteine and the expansive Elbe valley.

The impressive panorama that can be seen from here changes with every time of day and year. In the morning light, the Schrammsteine appear gentle and dreamy, while at the golden hour of the evening they glow in the most intense colors. In winter, the rugged rocks are often covered with a fine layer of snow, which gives them a mystical aura.

In addition to the breathtaking view, it is above all the silence and isolation that make this place so special. Far away from the noise of civilization, you can relax and recharge your batteries here, surrounded by untouched nature.

The Schrammstein viewpoint is not just a highlight for hikers and nature lovers. Photographers will also find a perfect subject here, and romantics can enjoy the fantastic view while having a picnic in nature.

Anyone visiting Saxon Switzerland should make sure to take a detour to the Schrammstein viewpoint. This place embodies the wild beauty and uniqueness of this region like no other and leaves every visitor with unforgettable impressions.
