Cunnersdorf
Cunnersdorf
The destination of this tour is a rather quiet vantage point in the left part of Saxon Switzerland - the Katzstein. From Cunnersdorf, the path first leads southwards. After reaching the spruce thicket, it is not far to the first rock of the tour - the Spitzstein. The nearby Spitzstein bivouac offers a wonderful opportunity for a short rest. From there, we continue to Schneebergblick. The view from the south side of the Spitzstein is one of the most beautiful in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains: 180 degrees of unobstructed view - from the Schrammstein chain to the High Schneeberg. From here, the route continues northwards across the wooded plateau of the Katzstein to the Signal View - past the Katzfels, probably the smallest viewpoint in Saxon Switzerland. From here, you descend back to Cunnersdorf.
This tour is a red route (moderately difficult).
