    Great tour along the upper Kirnitzsch. Start at the hiking car park Buchenparkhalle to the upper lock, from there by boat or alternatively hike, then to the Wolfsschlucht (blue and white marking) along the Kirnitzsch and back towards Hinterhermsdorf. When the weather is nice, the climb to Königsplatz with a great view is still worthwhile!

      In the cooler season it is not as full as in the summer.

        If you want to explore the Kirnitzschklamm on foot, you should definitely walk the raft platform.

        A great experience, but you should take sturdy shoes with you ... 👍🏽
