From the Pieschener Mole you already have a beautiful view of the city. But I recommend driving a little further to the Marienbrücke. Then it will be really nice 👍🏻

The name Prießnitz stands for Breza, from the Slavic and means birch. In addition to the eponymous birch, you can also discover marigolds, sundews and marsh irises in the Prießnitzgrund. Kingfishers, bullfinches and wrens have their habitat here. Brook trout and brook lamprey cavort in the water. A spacious place to relax!

Path along the Prießnitz

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Actually hard to believe that you are only a few meters away from busy roads. The Prießnitz ripples along idyllically and in some easily accessible places children in particular have a lot of fun in the water.

Today I went on a bike ride, starting through the Priesnitzgrund. On through Klotzsche, then a little way parallel to the road to Globalfoundries, and then over towards Boxdorf. There I made a quick stop at the campsite with the Frosch Café. Then I continued through the forest to Moritzburg. Here I also had a quick break at Café Kuhnath, …

May 2, 2025,Entlang der Elbe nach Schloss Moritzburg

From Dresden along the right bank of the Elbe to Cosewig, then inland to Moritzburg Castle. The route through Cosewig along the main road is disastrous; you'd better find back roads. Further on, however, the forest path is mostly manageable, except for some gravel. What idiot actually comes up with the idea of graveling bike paths everywhere? The castle is …
