What to expect
Parc National de la Suisse Saxonne
Kick off your adventure with a seamless pick-up from your Dresden hotel at a pre-arranged time. Settle into our comfortable air-conditioned minivan and let our knowledgeable and friendly guides take you on an unforgettable journey through the heart of Saxon Switzerland National Park. As you cruise along the scenic route, prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking landscapes and fascinating insights shared by our guides. Brace yourself for an adventure filled with natural wonders, breathtaking views, and unforgettable memories.
Bastei Bridge
Experience Bastei, the crown jewel of Saxon Switzerland! Explore several breathtaking viewpoints, among which the most stunning overlooks the Elbe Canyon, the largest sandstone canyon in Europe. From a height of 190 meters above the river, behold the beauty of Saxon Switzerland National Park - the table mountains of Lilienstein and Königstein with its impregnable fortress. Then walk across this magnificent Bridge perched high above the river Elbe. This awe-inspiring landmark holds the distinction of being the first tourist attraction in the region, constructed in 1851 to connect the rocky peaks with Neurathen Fortress. Prepare to be marveled by its architectural wonder!
Neurathen Castle
Explore the magnificent Neurathen Fortress, a medieval marvel nestled in the sandstone cliffs. Prepare to be mesmerized by yet another stunning perspective of the Bastei Bridge, and the surrounding valley with forest theater. But Neurathen holds more than stunning views! Get ready to travel back in time. We'll uncover archaeological treasures hinting at a surprising past, when this region was submerged beneath a vast sea millions of years ago.
Elbe Sandstone Mountains
After exploring Bastei Bridge and Neurathen Fortress, we'll embark on a scenic drive through the Elbe River Canyon to the Czech side of the National Park - Elbe Sandstone Mountains.
Pravcicka brana - Sokoli hnizdo
(Not available from November to March) The 2km hike navigates us to the Pravcicka Gate. Approaching it from below, you will see the majesty with which it stands at the top of the surrounding landscape. It is the symbol of the Bohemian Swizerland National Park and you will know why, once you see it.
Bohemian Switzerland National Park
You need to recharge your batteries, so the next stop will be a traditional Czech and locally renowned restaurant. A rich "a la carte" lunch will be a welcome and well-deserved reward. Traditional Czech and international dishes are served (including vegetarian options). We highly recommend trying Czech beer, which is one of the best in the world. This restaurant is very popular with the locals and has the best reputation in Bohemian Switzerland. We are always very welcome at this restaurant and we have a pre-booked table in the best place that will be waiting for you ready before our arrival. In addition, we have an advantage over other guests in the kitchen, so the wait for food is significantly shorter.
Tiske steny
Then we will drive you into the Tisa Rocks labyrinth, where Chronicles of Narnia was filmed. The rock city with lots of towers, small squares and mysterious corners will win you over with its captivating beauty. Anyone who ventures into the bowels of the rocks to enjoy the extraordinary charm of natural beauty will be rewarded with a nice experience. And as you know, no one can take the experience away from you.
Dresden
After an amazing day exploring Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland, we'll head back to Dresden for a relaxing ride. Chat with fellow adventurers, share your favorite photos, and unwind after a day of adventure. We'll arrive back in Dresden comfortably, ensuring a perfect ending to your unforgettable trip.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
