Climb to Merbitz

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Nice climb into the western highlands and further towards Lommatzscher Pflege with nice curves (which are really fun, especially downhill). Very little traffic outside of rush hour. Asphalt is great. The climb is long and gets steeper towards the end, but I always think it's nice to drive this way because you have beautiful views over the landscape and you can look downhill at Dresden, Radebeul and the vineyards. In my opinion it is the best option because the alternatives are either very urban (Dresden-Leutewitz/Gorbitz or Cossebaude) or even steeper (Nieder-/Oberwartha). You can also take a break in the newly opened bistro in Rennersdorf.

Another great railway embankment in the area. Very nice route in a very beautiful landscape. Since I discovered the piece, I've been planning it on my tours.

View of Moritzburg Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

The castle has been the backdrop for fairy tale films several times.
Among other things, the filming of the film "Six Come Through the World" (1971), "Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella" (1972) and the Cinderella film adaptation released in 1989 took place here. In 2004 it served as the backdrop for the romantic comedy “A Princess to Fall in Love with”.

Quiet route through the forest from the Niederer Waldteich towards Boxdorf. The forest pond tempts you to take a short photo. The asphalt is still like new and rolls like ne 1.

Boxdorf to Oberer Waldteich Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Heading north, it's slightly downhill and you can really pick up the pace on this section. The asphalt is very good, the traffic is moderate considering how close it is to the city, but the cars parked on the side of the road are very annoying.
