Itinerary

Your tour starts at Camp Děčín, where we will hand you a canoe or a kayak, paddle, and a dry bag. There will be a short briefing on-site. From now on you´ll start the tour unguided, at your own pace independently from other travelers. The trip is a 15 km long pleasant paddling tour and you can reach neighboring Germany in 3 hours. During the tour, you will be amazed by the fabulous Bohemian Switzerland National Park from the water surface in the deepest sandstone canyon in Europe. The handover point for bikes is located on the right river bank of the picturesque village of Schmilka, directly at the ferry station. There you can visit a local microbrewery or cafe with breathtaking views. After you reach the handover point at the ferry on the right bank, we will take the boat from you and give you the bikes. Then you will get to the left bank of the Elbe Cycle Route by ferry. Don't forget the 2 € in cash/per person (including the bike)! If you want to visit the nearby spa town of Bad Schandau, you can also use the cycle path on the right bank. The bikes must be returned by 6 pm at the Kemp Decin reception. We charge 300 CZK for late returns.
