    Hiking

    Towpath along the Elbe River in the Dresden district of Niederpoyritz, featuring information panels about its history.

    Information:

    Towpath between Loschwitz and Pillnitz, approximately 6.2 km long. It was paved with sandstone blocks around 1870. It commemorates the exceptional contributions of men to Elbe River navigation. Until about the mid-19th century, when sailing was not possible, towmen pulled barges upstream, often under life-threatening conditions, using ropes.

    Rather not use if it rained, lots of mud and very slippery!
