Lower Forest Pond

Highlight • Lake

The Niederer Waldteich can be reached from Dresden, Moritzburg, or Radebeul. From Dresden, it is very easy to get there from Moritzburger Strasse. There are also beautiful forest paths directly on Moritzburger Strasse by bike.

Further on, however, the forest path is mostly manageable, except for some gravel. What idiot actually comes up with the idea of graveling bike paths everywhere? The castle is …
