SAXON SWITZERLAND - The summit of Nature
Just beyond the gates of Dresden towards the border CSR surprised one of the most unique natural attractions of Germany: the romantic rock formations of the Elbe sandstone, applicable in many parts of the National Park.
Bizarre rock pinnacles, reefs and deep gorges alternate with wide plateaus, large, silent forests and charming valleys, over which rise mesas. Embedded in pure nature: the Elbe, on the oldest paddle steamer fleet in the world operates, and many a cozy town.
Clear, because vacation is the most natural thing in the world: 1200 km of hiking trails await cozy and sophisticated natures - in dense diversity that is unparalleled, from walking paths to alpinism. Approximately 14,000 (fourteen thousand!) Climbing routes from easy to extremely difficult lead to 1,100 free-standing peaks - as we wish - Bergheil!

Küche schmutzig, viele Ameisen, Gummi von kühlschrank schwarz, etcBad in den Ecken, unter der Ausstattung schmutzig, silberfische und Käfer, Schlafzimmer an einer Wand Schimmelbefall !! Sind 1Woche vorher abgereist.Am Anfang habe ich noch vieles selbst geputzt, aber mit dem Schimmel war es dann genug. Diese Wohnung sollte nicht mehr angeboten werden.
Eine sehr kleine Ferienwohnung, aber sauber und alles vorhanden.
Durch den Stein, über dem Haus, kann man es von der Festung Königstein aus sehen .
Familie Kiessling sind sehr nette und freundliche Vermieter und nicht nur wir haben uns dort wohlgefühlt, sondern auch unser kleiner Hund.
Danke für die schöne Woche
