Description

Embark on a full-day hiking adventure from Prague, exploring the breathtaking Saxon Switzerland National Park in Germany and Bohemian Switzerland National Park in the Czech Republic. Your journey begins with convenient pickup or meeting point in Prague 1, setting the stage for a day surrounded by stunning natural beauty and scenic landscapes.

Your first stop is the iconic Bastei Bridge, perched high above the Elbe River and offering panoramic views of the rugged sandstone formations. After taking in this awe-inspiring sight, you’ll journey through the dramatic Elbe Canyon before crossing back into the Czech side to continue your exploration.

During the main season from April to October, you’ll visit Pravcicka Brana, the largest sandstone arch in Europe. Reaching this remarkable landmark requires a moderately challenging 3 km uphill hike, rewarding you with vistas reminiscent of a fantasy film. Those joining in the winter months will instead discover the fascinating Tisa Rocks, a highlight of the region.

Enjoy an authentic lunch at a family-run forest restaurant, where simple home-cooked dishes fuel your adventure. Afterward, descend into the enchanting Edmunds and Wild Gorges for a scenic boat ride along tranquil waters, followed by a return hike through the park’s most beautiful trails. The total hiking distance is approximately 12 km, so a moderate level of fitness is essential.

This tour is designed for active explorers who appreciate both challenge and reward. If you’re ready to discover Europe’s stunning natural wonders off the beaten path, don’t wait—check availability or book your Saxon and Bohemian Switzerland hiking tour today!
