- Start: Tisá cultural house – access to the Tissaer Walls or stop Jílové Sněžník restaurant Hraničář - ascent to Sněžník/Snow Mountain
- Destination: Station or ZOB Pirna
The route can be started with a visit to the Tyssaer Walls. Then in Tisá descend and follow the wide hairpin bend to Sněžník (cycle path 21).
Tip: In Sněžník, first go straight uphill about 2 kilometers to the High Snow Mountain (Sněžník) (or push). Here, you will first find on the left side of the summit the Dresden viewpoint (Drážďanská vyhlídka) and then the observation tower and a small cabin with refreshment options. The return trip back to the village of Sněžník leads back along the same path.
Then ride through the village of Sněžník and continue following "cycle path 23" through a longer forest section towards Maxičky (Maxdorf). After a descent (caution, somewhat steeper descent!), you reach the Elbe via the Děčín suburb of Připeř, which is called Labe on the Czech side.
Follow the cycle path downstream along the Elbe to Schöna, and the route can then continue on the Elbe cycle path to Pirna.
Alternatively, you can get on the S-Bahn line 1 at any point along the Elbe cycle path, which will bring you back to Pirna.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author
The BicycleBuses run on all public holidays and weekends from April 1 to October 31. They can transport up to 16 bicycles at the same time. Bringing e-bikes is not a problem. Your advantage: overnight guests with the guest card mobil only need to buy a bike ticket. This can be bought from the bus driver.
