Cut your own Christmas trees with the forester
Christmas tree sale on Saturday, 15 December at Ebersdorfer Wald
The City of Chemnitz Parks Department will be selling Christmas trees on Saturday, 15 December 2018 between 9 am and 12 noon. These are blue spruce trees around 1.50 to 3.50 metres high, which you can select and cut yourself. If necessary, the forestry workers will of course lend a hand.
The trees are grown without the use of pesticides or fertilisers. A tree costs 15 euros, payable by EC card or cash. If you wish, you can take your tree home wrapped in a net.
However, bringing your own handsaw will definitely save you waiting time. The use of your own chainsaws is not permitted.
Access by car is from the Tännichtleite to the edge of the forest, through the open barrier on the path next to the power lines to the sales area. From Stiftsweg and Slevogtstraße, the sales area will be signposted. This year, both sales areas are equipped with packing hoppers.
The cash desk is located in front of the railway subway. This is also the only place where you can obtain the necessary receipt to leave the site with a Christmas tree. Exit is only possible through the railway subway and the street "An der Bahnstrecke". Turning is not permitted due to the narrow paths.
