Autumn Baste ... you have taken a special place in my heart 🧡, the riot of colors is just a delight for the eyes 😍 what a thrill it is to walk slowly and rustle the leaves under your feet, inhale the scent of autumn with full breasts 🍂 I want to stop and look into the distance to examine every detail on these huge rocks🪨 It's not for nothing that after visiting this place Kaspar Friedrich was the painting Felsenschlucht was painted, and Alexander Scriabin wrote the prelude "Bastai".
I definitely recommend visiting this incredible place 👍🍂⛰️

A magnificent fortress, as well as many others. This is the story. Gorgeous views of Saxon Switzerland!! But I would like to focus on a sometimes forgotten object located nearby - the Bastai Bridge. An impressive building with a 200-year history, about 40 km from Dresden. This is a National park where the height of the sandy cliffs is about 200 m above sea level, the gorge under the bridge is 40 m. An observation deck with magnificent views of the river, mountains, gorge... There is a cafe and a restaurant. An indescribable beauty!

A very interesting place. I was struck by the view from the high shore, from the fortress wall to the opposite low shore. Everything is like a toy, like a view from an airplane.

It's a great place, but there are always crowds of tourists. It's hard to get alone

I really liked it. We were here on an excursion, we were traveling from Prague. Very beautiful views from the fortress wall to the bends of the Elbe. The tour itself is informative, good information content, you can have a snack and buy souvenirs.

A large fortress that surrendered only once - only in 1945. Before that, it was impregnable for many centuries, although the height of the walls in some places is only about 2 meters. I recommend you to visit.

fine. Peter the Great is said to have been here, visiting Augustus the Strong. I do not know if the fortress really served as a refuge for Martin Luther, who was stolen by Frederick the Magnanimous in order to save him from papal reprisals....

This is a place worth visiting. Gorgeous views in all directions of the world leave an unforgettable impression. Climb up to the fortress on foot and the effect will be enhanced by the contrast and variety of impressions from the small houses at the foot and the dense forest on the way to the walls of the fortress. Hiking in the autumn will add color.
