Get on your bike in Krásná Lípa and head towards Kyjov (direction Mikulášovice, cycle path 3013). In 15 minutes you will stop at the Fakulta inn, where you will turn off the main road and drive through the Kyjovský údolí along the Křinice river. Along the way, rock massifs with viewpoints await you, sitting on the Tourist bridge and the border crossing in the defunct village of Zadní Doubice. One kilometer after the crossing, you will come across a signpost on the German side, where you follow the direction of Hinterhermsdorf (ascent). Hinterhermsdorf is a picturesque village of wild timber. In the middle of the village there is an information center and a restaurant. From the village there is an asphalt road with signposts to the Obere Schleuse, where the cruise boats dock. Park your bikes in peace at the ticket office, buy a ticket (5 EUR) and go on a pleasant boat ride (20 min). You will return to the bikes along the footpath that skirts the river.

Now it’s up to you. If you go back to Krásná Lípa by the same route (the shortest option) or you go through Zadní Jetřichovice (crossing) or you go back on foot for a while with your bike against the current (already through Hinterhermsdorf) and you will reach Zadní Doubice and here you can also go to the settlement of Kopec , Brtníky following the blue tourist sign. In the settlement of Kopec, there is direct seating in the inn U Oty. So think about your journey

The cruise for tourists is on the original wooden raft in operation from Easter to the end of October. Current information at www.hinterhermsdorf.de

Do your children like dinosaurs, amusement parks, ropeways and climbing frames? Then go on a trip to the German prehistoric park near Budyšín. The park is built in the forest, which adds to the atmosphere. There are lots of climbing frames for children of all ages, a fun interactive place that simulates going underground and into space. For hot days, you can refresh yourself with the water fountain and relax in the hammocks. The park is located east of Dresden in front of the city gates of Budysín, just a few minutes from the Salzenforst highway exit. Use of the parking lot in front of the entrance is free.

Schrammsteine, a sandstone rock massif on the right bank in the Saxon Switzerland National Park. Several hiking trails lead here from the villages of Schmilka, Bad Schandau and Ostrau. The Schrammsteine are bordered to the north by the Kirnitzschtal valley (the tram line from Bad Schandau runs here), to the south by the Elbe valley and to the east by the Affensteine rock formation. The peaks of the rock chain are over 400 m above sea level and the highest peak (Schrammsteinaussicht – 417 m) is accessible by steel stairs. Great views, for example of the Falkenstein and Hohe Torstein rock towers.
