Hiking boat (cross-border)

Short facts

The hiking boat is probably the most promising means of transport from Bad Schandau via Schmilka to Hrensko.

Experience the sandstone scenery of Saxon Switzerland on a relaxing cruise from the Elbe. Discover technical masterpieces, former sandstone quarries and learn lots of interesting and amusing facts about the Elbe along the way.

The small ship sails from Bad Schandau Elbkai via Krippen/Postelwitz and Schmilka to Hrensko and back up to four times a day. Each landing stage of the hiking boat offers you attractive starting points for hikes to the left and right of the Elbe. 

To mark the 20th anniversary, additional trips to Stadt Wehlen will be offered from 20 June to 9 September 2024. A second ship will depart from Bad Schandau quay on Wednesdays and Thursdays and travel via Königstein and Rathen to Stadt Wehlen and back.

Catering is available on the open outdoor deck.
