The Amselgrund ("Amsel Bottom") is the name given to the valley of the Grünbach stream in the heart of Saxon Switzerland in Eastern Germany.
Its touristic high points are the lake of Amselsee and the Amsel Falls, that trickles over the grotto called the Amselloch.
The valley bottom that is densely wooded is surrounded by a backdrop of rocks.
The middle of the valley bottom is dominated by the striking Talwächter.
Above the Amsel Falls, large, fallen sandstone boulders block the watercourse, so that the rather lower water quantities of the Grünbach have to find their way past them.
