Saxon Wine Trail - Stage 6 - From Meißen to Diesbar-Seußlitz

ATTENTION: Important notice: Hiking trail at Heinrichsburg Castle in Diesbar-Seußlitz closed from 18.05.26 due to construction work

Due to extensive construction work in the area of Heinrichsburg Castle in Seußlitz, the hiking trail (staircase) will be fully closed from 18.05. to probably 19.06.2026. Please note that the path to Heinrichsburg is a dead end during this time (the viewpoint at Heinrichsburg from the forest road is accessible).

Detour route description from Diesbar to Seußlitz from "Schönster Weinsicht":

Walk back to the large vineyard gate, then turn left along the path through the vineyards towards Seußlitz. At the "Eckholz" archaeological signpost 4, turn right through the gate and take the "Schmiedebergweg" meadow path towards Seußlitz. When you reach the forest road (opposite the castle park), turn left along the forest road. The detour ends below Heinrichsburg/at the exit to the castle park.

Detour route description from Seußlitz to the "Schönste Weinsicht":

You have arrived on Forststraße at the castle park exit/below Heinrichsburg Castle and now keep left. From the staircase with sandstone figures to Heinrichsburg Castle, walk approx. 100 m further along the forest road, then turn right up the meadow path "Schmiedebergweg" and follow the path to the gate at "Eckholz" with the archaeological plaque station 4. Here you turn left onto the path through the vineyards and walk to the vineyard gate. Before the large vineyard gate, you can turn right and take a detour to the "Schönste Weinsicht" or continue straight ahead without taking a detour (detour completed).

If you don't want to ascend or descend via the meadow path, you would have to take Radewitzer Straße in the direction of Forststraße without the vineyard.
