Deeply cut grounds run through the sandstone of the Upper Saxon Switzerland. They have an almost mystical atmosphere and a cool cellar climate.
It is a world of its own that we can immerse ourselves in on this hike; in seclusion and a little bit detached from reality.

Teufelskammer Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The trail around the Teufelskammer is best hiked with small backpacks. This trail is located on Malerweg in Uttewalder Grund. Malerwegwanderer should take this highlight, it's worth it.

It is quite a narrow valley. In between, duck walking is necessary under small rock gates. Especially with a backpack, it is easier to walk on the ascent.

Breathtaking tour through the Teufelsschlucht. In some parts we had to crawl on all fours through the rocks.

Hello everyone! Greetings and cheers from Saxon Switzerland National Park. Joe

Today we were only supposed to do a short ride, as a thunderstorm was/is forecast for the afternoon. So this route seemed perfect for us. However, we underestimated the challenge of the gorges a bit 😅 But in the end, it was great, and we're proud of ourselves.

This tour recommendation from the nature park administration is really worth *****. For our round we had to bend our knees several times to get under the rock. For us this tour was unique.

What impressive nature, highly recommended. The tour is also very suitable for children.

Today we did 2 short hikes and discovered a beautiful green "fairy landscape"🧚🧚‍♀️😀 It was fascinating again 👏 After that we went to the Lohmener Gorge😃

Translated by Google

If you're traveling with small feet, it shouldn't be too far, but there should be some action.

Translated by Google

A beautiful walk! With a few challenges finding the way, but that's due to the time of year. But there is also a small, cozy-looking restaurant that invites you to stop for a break!
