Bosel Tower
Highlight • Viewpoint
"The 17 m high Bosel Tower was built near the Deutsche Bosel in 1898, a listed observation tower that has been open to the public again since 2012 after extensive renovation." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaargebirge#Erschlie%C3%9Fung
One euro in the can and you have a great all-round view from Niederau over Coswig to the Radebeul vineyards, on to the Elbe slopes with the television tower to Saxon Switzerland with the striking Lilienstein and Königstein. On the other side of the Elbe you can see the Niederwartha pumped storage plant and the "Golden Gate" in front of it. If the trees are not too leafy, it is also possible to look in the other direction to Meissen.

Bosel Tree Trail
Highlight • Trail
From the Boselweg in Sörnewitz over the Haselgrund, the steep ascent leads to the Bosel view; However, this path requires a bit of stamina. Alternatively, we recommend the newly designed car park on the Bosel (approx. 100 m in front of the Boselspitze guest house) as a starting point for those who are not so good on foot or with a stroller.
The Sörnewitz dendrologist Prof. Peter A. Schmidt is responsible for the content, i.e. the selection of tree species, the well-founded texts and the numerous photos. The graphic implementation was carried out by two young urban planners Julia Grzybowska and Martin Lier.
The manual work was carried out by the DRK Meissen's workshop for the disabled. In the past few weeks, the Coswig construction depot has set up the 34 boards (in addition to the stations on the trees and biotopes there are two introductory boards). The costs for the city of Coswig were around 15,000 euros.
