Charming vantage point on the Malerweg
The Goldsteinaussicht is located on the Reitsteig above the Großer Zschand and is one of the most striking viewpoints in the Hintere Sächsische Schweiz. It offers an unobstructed view of the rock formations of the Richterschlüchte, the Thorwald Walls and the neighboring Bohemian Switzerland.
Hiking tip: Over the Pohlshörner to the Teichstein
The viewpoint is located directly on well-marked hiking trails, e.g. the Malerweg. The surrounding area is characterized by forest, gorges and rocks, which define the landscape of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains.
The paths to the Goldsteinaussicht are mostly natural and easy to walk on. There are no technical difficulties, although surefootedness is required in places.
The viewpoint is freely accessible all year round and is a good stop-off point on hikes through the Großer Zschand.
