Along Křinice through the Kyjov valley to Hřensko

Krásná Lípa - Kyjov - Kyjov Valley - Hinterhermsdorf - Bad Schandau - Hřensko

The cycling tour along the Křinická cycling route starts in the heart of the Czech Switzerland National Park, in the town of Krásná Lípa, where you can first visit the House of Czech Switzerland with a beautiful exposition about nature and landscape and get all the necessary information in the information centre.

The cycle tour then leads first along cycle route No. 3013 to Kyjov and from there along cycle route No. 3032. The route from Kyjov leads through the beautiful Kyjov valley along the Křinice river. A new nature trail through the valley of the Křinice River was recently opened here. So sometimes it is worth stopping, getting off the bike and using this nice nature trail. From the crossroads Zadní Doubice - border bridge, the Křinice River forms the border between the Czech Republic and Saxony. The cycle path of the same name crosses the border here and continues on through Hinterhermsdorf, past the Lichtenheiner Wasserfall to Bad Schandau, where it ends at the Elbe. From Bad Schandau, follow the Elbe Trail back into Bohemia to Hřensko.

We recommend using the left-bank variant of the Elbe Trail. In Bad Schandau, take the ferry to Krippen, where you can enjoy a comfortable cycle path and beautiful views of the rock formations around the Elbe. Later, another ferry will take you from Schöna to Hřensko. From Hřensko back to Krásná Lípa you will be transported by the Ústí nad Labem Region Transportation cyclo-bus No. 434 in the tourist season (we recommend checking the operation, dates and times of the cyclo-bus line on the website www.dopravauk.cz).
