Top 20 Caves シュタット・ヴェーレンでの

Awesome view of the valley and Hohenstein. Fantastic.

Family-friendly tour in Saxon Switzerland, Saxony. This short hike through the Teufelsgrund and to the Heringshöhle is ideal for all age groups.

Great view of Hohnstein & its fortress.

If you stand here and look down into the valley, you will witness the constant change that our forests are going through. Once green and vibrant, many trees now show brown marks, signs of the bark beetle that has wreaked havoc in this area. But even if this scene makes the heart heavy, the view is still impressive. Secured by a railing, the view here is no less impressive in its melancholy - and it is also safe for children to access. The silence that surrounds the valley is broken by the majestic view of Hohnstein with its imposing castle, which stands proudly on a rock opposite. And further back, the picturesque Polenztal valley meanders along. A panorama that, in its beauty and at the same time in its vulnerability, conveys a powerful message: nature is in constant change, and it is in our hands how this story continues.

Beautiful view of Hohnstein Castle and down in Polenztal

Even in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, the forest is dying...

It is a little small when there are crowds of people here, but it is secured with a railing. What is special is that from this view you can see the two landscape forms, one characterized by granite, the other by sandstone. This is precisely where the granite rock pushed under the sandstone slab. To the north there is a more V-shaped valley with sloping granite slopes, while to the south the vertically terraced walls of the sandstone are visible.

Beautifully high above the Polenztal, you can already see the Polenzbaude, where you can eat delicious.
