Explore the Natural Wonders of Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland
Curious about where our tours will take you? Here’s a closer look at the stunning places you’ll explore with us. Each destination offers its own unique atmosphere, geological beauty, and unforgettable experience.
Bastei Bridge – The Icon of Saxon Switzerland
The Bastei Bridge is one of Germany’s most famous natural landmarks, set high above the Elbe River in the Saxon Switzerland National Park. Built in the 19th century from local sandstone, the bridge links a group of towering rock formations that have been shaped over millions of years. From the viewpoint, you’ll enjoy breathtaking panoramas of deep canyons, lush valleys, and the surrounding Elbe Sandstone Mountains. It’s a place where geology and romance meet, perfect for both hikers and photographers.
Pravčická Arch – A Monument of Stone and Time
The Pravčická Arch (Pravčická brána) is the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe and the crown jewel of Bohemian Switzerland. Rising 16 meters high and spanning 26.5 meters across, this dramatic formation is the result of centuries of erosion, standing as a breathtaking testament to the power of nature. Surrounded by steep cliffs and deep forests, the arch is accessible by scenic trails with multiple viewpoints, making it a must-see for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
Wild Gorge – A Tranquil Boat Ride Through Nature’s Hidden Passage
Tucked away in the forested landscape of Bohemian Switzerland, the Wild Gorge (Divoká soutěska) offers a peaceful escape into a narrow river canyon. Accessible only by boat, this serene stretch of the Kamenice River winds between moss-covered rock walls, small waterfalls, and overhanging cliffs. A local ferryman guides your dinghy through the gorge, creating a calm, almost meditative experience that contrasts beautifully with the hikes earlier in the day.
Tisa Walls – A Fantasy Landscape in Stone
The Tisa Walls (Tiské stěny) are a surreal maze of sandstone towers, crevices, and rock corridors located near the Czech-German border. Often referred to as a “stone city,” this area gained international fame as a filming location for The Chronicles of Narnia. As you walk through its narrow paths and towering rock formations, you’ll see why — the atmosphere is mystical, ancient, and otherworldly. Tisa is impressive in any season, but in winter, with snow covering the ground and dusting the cliffs, it transforms into a true fairytale landscape.
