The boatmen of the Obere Schleuse near Hinterhermsdorf guide their guests by means of hand barges past rock faces whose sulphur lichens are reflected in the clear water, show rare plants that only thrive in the national park and show strange rock formations in which, with a little imagination, you can recognize a crocodile, a mountain spirit, an elephant's head or a sleeping lamb.
