Trip with the family!
We took the forest railway to Kromlau. The Rakotz Bridge was admired in the park. The Cafe Azalea enticed with delicious ice cream sundaes. And to top it all off, on the way back (this time on foot) the feet were bathed in the emerald lake.

🎒 May is the perfect month to explore Kromlau Park with its beautiful landscape. The approximately 200-hectare park, created in 1842 by landowner Herman Rötschke in Kromlau, is known for its azalea and rhododendron stands. Also famous is the picturesque, unique Rakotz Bridge, built from fieldstone and basalt from Saxon Switzerland and Bohemia, which we visit right at the beginning. …

After the restoration of the ensemble around the Rakotzbrücke (Devil's Bridge) was recently completed for four million euros, I looked at the result.

The path leads along narrow-gauge tracks - past small lakes with azure blue or brown water - to Kromlau station, where the Muskau forest …

Today we went to Saxony again with @Naturfreundin Regina.
Only this time not to Dresden or Saxon Switzerland, but to Weisswasser.


This is where our joint tour started, with the destination being Kromlauer Park.
It wasn't the rhododendrons that interested us most, because they were already faded, no... but the basalt organ and the Rakotz Bridge.

From the station, it is easy to get to the park by train. The playground is a great experience for the little ones, and there is also a snack bar and toilet. Parking is free. The total journey is about 8 km by train and the rest is on foot.
