The Whitsun weather is already putting a damper on our plans. Today's alternative: Augustusburg.

September 18, 2021,Regenwanderung zur Augustusburg

A little hike with my brother was planned for today. We were not impressed by the cloudy sky and so we started at Hennersdorf train station.
The Zschopautal hiking trail passed Nesselgrund and Kunnersteinhütte to Augustusburg.
Shortly before reaching the castle, the rain set in, which from then on lasted almost consistently to a greater or lesser extent until the …

A little walk around the castle courtyard, a few photos and then we continued on the hiking trail, today's destination was the Christmas tree path. This is on the Förstersteig, from Kunnersdorf …

December 28, 2024,Drahtseilbahn, Augustusburg, Kunnerstein und Christbaumpfad 🥾🐾❄️

This tour is as much a part of Christmas as the tree 🎄, Santa Claus 🎅🏻 and the presents 🎁. Technology, King August's pleasure palace, a fantastic view of the Zschopau valley and finally the lovingly decorated Christmas tree path in Kunnersdorf. With mulled wine and stollen to rest on the artificial stone, nothing can top the tour. Today's weather …
