Hi fern,

I was there quite some time ago, in '91 I think, right after unification. We took a train from Dresden that went along the Elbe. Alot of rock formations were easily accessible by foot from the various train stops.

 

Glancing at some of our notes in a guidebook, I think that you might want to take different trains to different areas.

 

I relied upon my wife to figure out which trains to take. She consulted the train guide and two books: "Wanderfuhrer Sachsishe Schweiz" published in the "Kompass Wanderfuhrer" series by Deutscher Wanderverlag, and "Der Elbesandsteinfuhrer" by Bernd Arnold and published by Panico Alpinverlag.

 

The latter guidebook is amazing- I've never seen such a climbing guidebook with its old copies of articles, many black and white photos and drawings, and an interesting cover that seems to be a combination photograph and painting.

 

I hope this message reaches you in time.
