Cunnersdorf circular route to the Katzstein

The destination of this tour is a rather quiet vantage point in the left bank of Saxon Switzerland - the Katzstein. From Cunnersdorf, the trail first leads south. Once you have reached the spruce thicket, it is not far to the first rock of the tour - the Spitzstein. The nearby Spitzstein bivouac offers a wonderful opportunity for a short rest. From there, continue to the Schneebergblick. The view on the south side of the Katzstein is one of the most beautiful in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains: 180 degree unobstructed views - from the Schrammstein range to the Hoher Schneeberg. From here, the route continues northwards across the wooded plateau of the Katzstein to the Signal viewpoint - past the Katzfels, probably the smallest viewpoint in Saxon Switzerland. From there, the descent back to Cunnersdorf begins.
