This tour combines three wonderful views of Saxon Switzerland and sometimes even beyond! From Hohnstein, the route first leads to the Napoleonschanze, from there far down into the Tiefen Grund and then immediately climbs back up to the Waitzdorfer Höhe. After passing through the village of Waitzdorf, the route climbs up to the Brandaussicht - the balcony of Saxon Switzerland.
