The Kipphornaussicht is also one of the motives of the famous painter, Casper David Friedrich. Part of the well-developed and famous Malerweg, which served as a backdrop for some paintings by the painter, leads to the Kippfornaussicht. The view offers a great view of the Elbe Valley, which almost reminds us of one of the beautiful Norwegian fjords.

Very good view towards Schmilka and Tchechien. Also very suitable as a rest stop.

In contrast to the many overcrowded viewpoints in Saxon Switzerland, you can still let your gaze wander over this fairytale mountain. In addition, the length of the Anmarschweges is still limited, so that even walkers can benefit.
