Zschonergrund Nature Trail

Highlight • Trail

Good for hiking or walking. The bike also feels good here, but not on weekends, because it gets too crowded. By bike you take the trail on the opposite side of the stream. Then it's definitely fun.

Nice to driving trail on woody ground with several stream crossings. Bridges are not available, but the transverse conditions are reinforced with stones and thus easily passable.

Admittedly, it's quite a long drive there, but we simply want to explore a new area, and the trails in the area are absolutely worth it. However, you'd better hurry; by June, some of them will be so overgrown that it'll be almost impossible to get through.

On tour with colleagues and friends.
Meeting point, in fog and single-digit temperatures, at the Reimann bakery, in the 🚆 Meißen zum ☕ train station.
To warm up, the path leads us over the Bosel and along the Elbe to the Elbe bridge in Coswig.
