Winter break

Attention winter break! The trekking route Forststeig Elbe Sandstone is closed since the 1st of November! The new season starts on April 6, 2019.

Dear trekking friends,
the trekking route Forststeig Elbe Sandstone has been in winter break since the 1st of November and is closed! The new season starts on April 6, 2019. All overnight stays in the forest (trekking huts and bivouac sites) as well as the camping sites in Ostrov and Leupoldishain are closed during this time.

The winter break
- protects nature, because sensitive natural areas and wild birds are not disturbed,
- protects hikers due to the terrain conditions and weather conditions.

During the winter break (November - March)
- we remove all mobile tokens to repair and preserve them
- we will not publish blockages of the route and information for visitors,
- we will use the forestry huts for the forestry and hunting management and
- we will repair and improve huts and bivouac sites.

We look forward to welcoming you again in the beautiful Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland from April 6, 2019!
Your Sachsenforst
