Bloßstock Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

The whole way along the Affensteine is worth it. After the nun's gardener, turn right (coming from the north) to get back on the path to the Wild Hell.

Häntzschelstiege (Saxon Switzerland National Park)

Highlight • Climb

One of the most beautiful via ferratas in the area. Not difficult, but not to be underestimated.

A via ferrata set is highly recommended (you never know...).

Descent via Wilde Hölle is possible.

Robin's Steps

Highlight • Climb

The robin staircase is undoubtedly one of the loveliest stairs and kids have fun as well. Easily usable as fast descent to Schmilka. Once at the top, the monkeys or the Schrammsteine are at your feet.

October 14, 2023,Schmilka - Häntzschelstiege - Schmilka

This tour was planned to give a few friends an introduction to a first via ferrata. Starting in the rain from Schmilka to the Rotkehlchenstiege. Then the sky opened up wonderfully with a brilliant view. Past other beautiful places (Carolafelsen, Wilde Hölle) to the entrance to the lower Häntzschelstiege. The via ferrata is well suited for beginners who would like …

June 6, 2022,Vier Stiegen Rundtour von Schmilka

The circular tour starts in Schmilka at the ferry and soon leads steeply up the Elbe slope to the Small Bastion with a beautiful view. The tour leads over a total of four stairs, which are paths with climbing passages in Saxon Switzerland. You should be a bit adventurous and not afraid of heights. First, the Rotkehlchenstiege climbs steeply. There …

March 8, 2025,6-Stiegen- Rundtour: Starke Stiege + Rotkehlchen Stiege + Wilde Hölle + Zwillingsstiege + Häntzschelstiege + Heilige Stiege

Today was the first real hike in Saxon Switzerland. 6 steps in one ride. The weather was great and there were hardly any people around. So we did the Starke Stiege, then the Rotkehlchen Stiege down and up again and then over to the Carolafelsen. Despite the great visibility there were too many people there, so we went down the …

August 16, 2021,Elbsandsteingebirge Tag 2 - Stiegentour von Schmilka

Today a guided stair tour of the Aktivzentrum Saxon Switzerland was on the program. What can I say? MEGA. My expectations were more than met.

We drove to Schmilkau and then relaxed on foot to the Zwieselhütte and on through the Heringsgrund to the Rübezahlsteig.

There we stood: far and wide, neither steel protection nor metal steps🤔.

January 28, 2024,Kraxeltour Affensteine. “Nicht viel Luft unterm Hintern, aber dafür Höhenmeter.” 👼

I quote: "Not a lot of air under your butt, but a lot of altitude." This is how my root dwarf summarized the tour today. 😅
We started in Schmilka in this great weather and climbed up the Rübezahlstiege. Upstairs there were curd snails from the mill bakery.
We then went back down through the icy, wild cave because the …
