Magical moments on the Bastei Bridge

Experience the fascinating Bastei Bridge, which was built from sandstone in 1851 and connects bizarre rock needles in the national park. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Elbe Valley and the surrounding rock massifs as you stroll across the bridge, which blends harmoniously into the landscape.

The Bastei can be reached by car (approx. 20 minutes' drive) to the large parking lot with a short walk or alternatively by train to Rathen, followed by a ferry ride and a hike. Visits at sunrise or in winter, when snow bathes the landscape in a magical white, are particularly atmospheric. An unforgettable experience for nature lovers and romantics!
