Rock winter in Schmilka

In winter, Saxon Switzerland is a dream in ice and snow. Then silence settles over the forest and rocks. Wisps of mist dance over the Elbe valley. In the cold season, the area around the Schmilk'sche Mühle transforms into the unique Schmilka Winter Village. Lanterns and log fires provide warm light and an atmospheric ambience. In the Mühlenstube, there is hearty food for body and soul. Accompanied by a dark organic beer from the Schmilka brewing manufactory. During a brewery tour, you can look over the master brewer's shoulder yourself.

Next door in the organic bakery, there is a wonderful smell of fresh mill bread. Enjoy the soothing warmth with a visit to the panoramic sauna with a view over the decorated mill courtyard. Or brave the cold temperatures and take a dip in a heated bathing tub. The bath attendant regularly invites guests to a beer bathing day here. At event highlights, such as readings, concerts or travel lectures, you can let your eventful day come to a relaxing end. Spend a pleasure holiday in the middle of nature and let yourself be enchanted by the Schmilka Winter Village!
