Herzlich willkommen in Hinterhermsdorf in der Sächsischen Schweiz!

Hinterhermsdorf ist die höchstgelegene Sommerfrische der Sächsischen Schweiz und am besten über Sebnitz oder durch's Kirnitzschtal von Bad
Schandau zu erreichen. Hauptattraktion ist die Bootsfahrt durch die wildromantische Kirnitzschklamm, eine romantische Kahnpartie direkt auf der Grenze zu Böhmen. Doch Finden sich hier auch Wanderwege, auf denen man stundenlang keinem Menschen begegnet, und für Kenner traditionellen Kunsthandwerks ein Geheimtip - eine Töpferei mit holzgefeuertem Steinzeugofen.
Wandern können Sie natürlich auch: Allein, mit der Nationalparkwacht, oder dem Drahtesel - und selbstverständlich auch ohne Gepäck. Die Wanderwege sind gut ausgeschildert und bieten vom Spazierweg bis zum anspruchsvollem Klettersteig etwas für jeden Anspruch. Alternativen zum Drahtesel sind Reiturlaub oder Kremserfahrten bei deren Organisation wir Ihnen gern helfen.
Ein Ausflug nach Dresden zeigt Ihnen dann, daß der Elbsandstein nicht nur in der Natur gut aussieht. Eine Aufführung in Europas wohl schönstem Naturtheater, der Felsenbühne Rathen, lässt nicht nur Kinderherzen höher schlagen, und außer der Burg Stolpen wollen auch Festung Königstein und andere Burgen und Schlösser der Region erobert werden.

Vacation home in calm setting at the base of the Bärenstein.
The dwelling offers an optimal starting point for hikes into Saxon Switzerland.
Well-known destinies like the small Bärenstein, Rauenstein, the health resort Rathen with Bastei and fortress Königstein can be visited in half or full-day trips.
The state capital Dresden, the back country of Saxon Switzerland and the Bielatal valley are comfortably approachable by car, bus or rapid-transit railway. On our large south-oriented balcony you can relax in peace in the evenings.
