It’s no secret that Dresden is one of the top holiday destinations in Saxony. But you’ll also find lots of other amazing spots to explore when you book some wheels and get out on the open road. We’ve pulled together some top tips to get your escape off to an exhilarating start:

• You’ll feel the lively spirit of bustling city life as soon as you pull into Bayreuth. Some 120 miles from Dresden, it’s home to loads of exciting places to explore, like Bayreuth Festival Theatre.
• Berlin, around 100 miles away, will also show you a good time. Curious what there is to see? Alexanderplatz is our first pick.
• After all that time on the road, treat yourself to some time out in nature at Baumwipfelpfad. It’s approximately 150 miles from Dresden.
