Explore several breathtaking viewpoints, among which the most stunning overlooks the Elbe Canyon, the largest sandstone canyon in Europe. From a height of 200 metres above the river, behold the beauty of Saxon Switzerland National Park - the table mountains of Lilienstein and Königstein with its impregnable fortress. Witness two icons on Czech side - the Rosehill and the highest table mountain in Bohemian Switzerland, Snowhill. 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 marvelled by its architectural wonder!

Our adventure continues beyond the iconic Bastei Bridge to the magnificent Neurathen Fortress, a captivating sight nestled amidst the sandstone landscape.

We'll delve into the medieval era, exploring the remnants of the stronghold that once housed vigilant guards. But that's not all! Brace yourselves for a fascinating journey back in time as we uncover archaeological treasures dating back 100 million years, when the region was submerged beneath a vast sea.
