Lichtenhain Waterfall - Bad Schandau

Popular hiking trail in the Saxon Switzerland National Park. This route leads from the Lichtenhain waterfall to Bad Schandau. It goes along many rock faces, forests, mills, and old relics of old rock castles through the Saxon Switzerland National Park. The start is at the paid parking lot of the Lichtenhain waterfall. From there, it goes uphill to the first highlight - the Felsentor Kuhstall. Their motivation can optionally use the ladder to heaven - a steel staircase through the narrow, dark crevice to reach the summit with a magnificent view. Shady forest paths lead pretty relaxedly to the next ascent to the next highlight. It goes up to the striking rock and climbing summit Bloßstock, which belongs to the Affenstein, and on to the Bauerlochturm. With great views of the plateau, we continue to the subsequent prominence of the path, the 569m high Carolafels. The vantage point offers a large rock cinema before it goes to the next rock gate, the small Prebischtor. The ridge path continues to be one of the most famous highlights of Saxon Switzerland - the favorite Schrammsteinen and Schrammstein view. After all the great highlights, the hike ends quite relaxed along the Zeughausweg and Wenzelweg and goes downhill to Bad Schandau. There is a bus stop and a parking lot at the des. Sturdy shoes are recommended. Due to the length, the hike can be rated as moderate to difficult. Highlights: - Kuhstall - Bloßstock - Bauerlochturm - Carolafelsen - Kleines Prebischtor
