Eastern ascent of Děčínský Sněžník

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

An ascent that feels like being in the Alps. It is rocky, the path is lined with birch trees. The view of the Saxon and Bohemian Switzerland completes the visually and lets forget the effort.

Garlic soup should be a must-eat on the Forststeig. Otherwise, take a short break to warm up and enjoy views.

The Dresden View is a rest and viewing point; from here, you can see all the way to Saxon Switzerland.

Healthy new things 🥂🍀
What worked perfectly last New Year didn't work at all today: enjoying the first sunrise of the new year on a summit.
On the way to Schneeberg we were completely immersed in fog, but there was still some hope. But it quickly became clear: that wasn't going to happen today 😅 The prospect for 2024 remained …

Today we went to Děčínský Sněžník (High Schneeberg)
At 723 m, this is the highest mountain in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. With a length of 1.6 km and a summit plateau of 600 m, it is also the largest table mountain in the mountains.

In Sněčnik the hiking car park was closed (under construction). We then took the eastern ascent as there was nowhere to park. The path is a bit longer and has a few more meters of elevation. But it is very, very beautiful and not too crowded.😄😉
