Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author
Sturdy footwear and provisions are generally recommended, as the paths are partly unpaved and the places to eat are not always open.
Otherwise, it is advisable to stop at Wachberg above Saupsdorf and at the Waldhaus just before Sebnitz.
In addition, binoculars are always useful on such routes to better enjoy and experience the views.
