Neustadt in Sachsen: Skilift Rugiswalde
Skilift Rugiswalde occupies a cleared hillside on Rugiswalder Berg in the Hohwald area near Neustadt in Sachsen, Saxony. Rugiswalde is a district of Neustadt in the Sächsische Schweiz-Osterzgebirge district and provides the setting for a small ski area with a surface lift and a forest-fringed run. Rugiswalder Berg belongs to the rolling Hohwald uplands, on the western edge of Upper Lusatia and close to Saxon Switzerland. This is a compact expression of Saxony’s local winter-sports tradition rather than a major mountain resort. Neustadt in Sachsen is associated with artificial-flower making, a craft developed here in the 19th century and documented by its Kunstblumen- und Heimatmuseum.

Formed around a settlement in the Polenz valley, Neustadt in Sachsen developed into a small town on the northern fringe of Saxon Switzerland. The Polenz flows through terrain where the Lusatian Highlands meet the sandstone country associated with the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, giving the area a character distinct from the nearby Elbe valley. Neustadt is also known as the Flower Town, and its annual Neustädter Blumenfest celebrates this local identity. Regional rail and road connections link the town with Sebnitz, Pirna and Dresden, while the Saxon Switzerland National Park lies to the south.
