Impressive and very practical shelter at the foot of the Großer Zschirnstein directly on the meadow path.

The beautiful view of the Elbe sandstone rocks accompanied us from Děčín and it didn't end in Bad Schandau. You never get tired of this view....

Always worth a trip. The drive up to Decin Castle is also always worthwhile.
