View of the Elbe

Highlight • Viewpoint

A view of the Elbe like so many others. Unfortunately, there is no description of what is special about this point. But views of the Elbe are usually great. So also this one at exactly this point.

Wehlen Ship's Deck Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

This great rest and vantage point is designed and gives the impression of being on a ship's deck. The ship's mast and anchors lying around reinforce this impression. From the benches you have a phenomenal view of the Elbe, the white quarries and the bastion. A small self-service pub is only a few meters away.
