Hot-Spot: The Wine Route in Saxony

Wine & delight just as you wish

The Saxon Wine Route near Meissen takes you through the most beautiful parts of the Saxon Elbe Valley: charming and drenched in sun. It's an almost Mediterranean attitude to life – sprinkled with marvelous regional wines. 

From Pirna in Saxon Switzerland to Diesbar-Seußlitz, the Saxon Wine Route runs  almost parallel to the Elbe River Bicycle Path. Here you will find picturesque villages and tradition-steeped cities – and, of course, the magnificent landscape of the vineyards. The Hotel Goldenes Fass is located almost directly along one of the most charming parts of the Saxon Wine Route – directly behind Meissen, down the Elbe River, picturesque little villages await you.

55km of pure adventure along the Saxon Wine Route

Hike through the idyllic vineyards or discover the age-old traditions of the beautiful Elbe Valley on your bike. Take a break at one of the long-established wine makers, wine restaurants or rustic wine taverns alon the way. Where else does the wine taste so good, if not directly where the grapes are grown.

Enjoy a very special view of the vineyards while on a spectacular boat ride along the Saxon Wine Route. You can take the historic paddle steamer directly from Meissen to the Elbe villages Diesbar and Seusslitz.
