6-day point-to-point hike through varied terrain. Great views and beautiful valleys alternate with many cultural highlights along the edges of the trails, making this route very entertaining.
Day 1 Decin - Schmilka (through the Dürrkamnitz Gorge)
Day 2 Schmilka - Gohrisch (beautiful view from Gohrischstein)
Day 3 Gohrisch - Königstein (visiting Königstein highly recommended)
Day 4 Königstein - Pirna (beautiful old town in Pirna)
Day 5 Pirna - Pillnitz (Pillnitz Castle)
Day 6 Pillnitz - Dresden (stand on the Frauenkirche and see where you have walked the last 5 days and be proud that you made it)
