Götzingerhöhe Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The panoramic view from the tower is gigantic. It wobbles a bit at the top. Take a deep breath and focus on the view

The earliest records refer to the mountain as Galgenberg after the place of execution that was located there. From the Seven Years' War until about 1880, the name Achtlindenberg was …

A very nice place to stay. You can also climb the observation tower if you get the key from the innkeeper. There is a large playground for children.

February 9, 2025,Ungerberg und Götzinger Höhe
Very nice hike in mountainous terrain near the Czech border.
We started at the train station in Neustadt and left the city heading east, past the outdoor pool on the Lindenweg. This later reaches Sebnitzer Straße and there is a strong warning about this road. However, you can see the heavy traffic from a distance, so the warning is a …

Beautiful tour. Perfect for dogs.

FYI: the mountain inn is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Guided Hiking Tour for SHG
A beautiful, varied hike through forests and fields, mountains and valleys. From the Götzinger Höhe and Ungerberg observation towers, the Prince George Tower on the latter offers fantastic panoramic views of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, the Eastern Ore Mountains, the Giant Mountains, the Lusatian Mountains, and more.

Showing Translation

On the trail through the interplay of Lusatian granite and Elbe sandstone.

Preliminary hike for the SHG.

This tour can also be done with the highlights of Götzinger Höhe and Unger, each with an observation tower, numerous rest areas, and beautiful scenic trails.

After a lot of commitments yesterday, it was supposed to be back in the woods today, regardless of the weather forecast. Well packed (4 degrees only) we started the beautiful and easy round. The paths were very soft. We didn't have good B grades today...
It was almost dead straight to the actual destination of the hike: the "Ruhebänke" triangulation …

Today I was a fellow hiker on a group hike. It was a round trip from Neustadt in Saxony, on to Götzingerhöhe with AT, Ungerberg with AT, Gerstenberg (rest benches, triangulation column), Rugiswalde and back via the Lindenweg to Neustadt. It was another beautiful and interesting hike with a veil of mist over the Ungerberg. There was still a lot …

Today I headed to a rather obscure spot in Saxony, but it fits perfectly into a mini-vacation between Dresden and Hrádek nad Nisou. I've certainly never been to Ungerberg. However, it has a fantastic observation tower, which was significantly expanded in the 1970s. The view from there extends toward Bohemian Switzerland and the Lusatian Mountains. Valtenberg is also easily recognizable. …
