From Dresden: Narnia Tour – Explore the Fantasy World of the Tisa Walls
Step beyond the city and into a landscape that inspired cinema and legends alike. This full-day tour from Dresden takes you deep into the borderlands of Germany and the Czech Republic, where sandstone towers rise like something from a fantasy film. And this isn’t just inspired by fantasy — these are actual filming locations from Hollywood’s The Chronicles of Narnia. The iconic Tisa Walls, where major scenes from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe were brought to life, are the centerpiece of your day.
Combined with a visit to the famous Bastei Bridge in Saxon Switzerland, this tour blends moderate hiking with stunning natural scenery, cinematic locations, and a deep connection to the wild beauty of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. The Tisa Walls are spectacular year-round — but when covered in snow, they become truly otherworldly.
Tour Highlights
Bastei Bridge – Saxony’s Most Famous Viewpoint (Germany)
Your journey begins in the Saxon Switzerland National Park, where you’ll visit the legendary Bastei Bridge. This dramatic sandstone structure connects towering rock pinnacles high above the Elbe River. The views from here are among the most iconic in Germany — a perfect introduction to the geological beauty of the region. The walk to the bridge is easy and highly rewarding.
Tisa Walls – Where Narnia Came to Life (Bohemian Switzerland, Czech Republic)
The highlight of the tour awaits just across the Czech border. The Tisa Walls (Tiské stěny) are a sprawling labyrinth of sandstone towers, cliffs, and narrow rock passages — and the very location where The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was filmed. The trail winds through this surreal “stone city,” revealing towering formations, hidden viewpoints, and a magical atmosphere that changes with the seasons.
The area is beautiful year-round, but in winter it’s especially magical — snow and frost turn the rocks into a fairytale kingdom. Whether you’re a film fan, a photographer, or simply a nature lover, Tisa never disappoints.
