Tips

Hiking

The Falkenschlucht is definitely one of the most attractive climbs in Saxon Switzerland: strenuous, steep in the upper area and equipped with stable steel ladders for some time. In addition, parts run through narrow gaps and holes. Class! More likely to be climbed (especially with children). If necessary, plug in a headlamp if you climb through in the evening.

Hiking

A beautiful and somewhat challenging ascent or descent via ladders through a rock alley to the Gohrisch.

Hiking

The Falkenschlucht is the most exciting of the 3 ascents / descents of the Gohrisch with numerous stairways. For a tunnel-like section it is advisable to have a headlamp or flashlight with you (but not absolutely necessary).
