    Hiking

    Closed from 16 June until 27 July 2025 due to repair work on the path and embankment. We saw the signs with this notice yesterday, 12 June.

    Hiking

    Where the village stream drops steeply into the Kirnitzschtal valley, you can walk along its course on metal steps. Here, too, there are impressive sandstone cliffs and lots of greenery.

    The path is part of the Saxon Switzerland National Park's network of paths and also part of the Malerweg.

    Hiking

    If you only want to run a loop from the bottom, it is recommended the Dorfbachklamm high and the Steinbrechersteig back down to walk.
