Viewpoint Ziegenrücken

Short facts

Viewpoint between the spa town of Rathen and Polenztal - a place of inspiration for Caspar David Friedrich

In his painting "The Hiker above the Sea of Fog", the mountain peak Gamrig can be seen to the left of the hiker. To get this view of the Gamrig, as in Friedrich's drawing in May 1808, only the viewpoint on Ziegenrückenstrasse is suitable.
It is difficult to reach by public transport or on foot. However, there are parking facilities at the viewpoint.
