Hiking

The Tiefer Grund is a narrow gorge in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains in Saxon Switzerland, stretching between the Polenz Valley and the Brandstufen. It is accessible via a narrow path along the Tiefer Grundbach stream. This hiking route is part of the Malerweg (Painter's Trail) and offers a scenic and at times romantic experience in the region characterized by narrow valleys and rock formations.

Hiking

The coolness of the forest, the rippling water, and lush greenery accompany you along the way. Ideal for a hot summer day.
