Change to Bad Schandau on the left side, then drive to the Czech border then right. Because otherwise you can see the "Little Bastion" only half as good.

Here the Elbradweg changes from rechtselbisch to leftselbisch. Between Königstein and Rathen is (officially) no getting through ... so only the ferry remains.
