My host in Dresden recommended that I go hiking in the Sächsische Schweiz, this nice region about 40 train-minutes from Dresden. I wasn’t sure, for I had planned to hitchhike to Chemnitz on the same day and I had arranged with my CS host in to arrive there before dinner… but hey it was so worth going! The Bastei bridge was indeed cramped with visitors (Czech and Germans mostly), but still really worth visiting!(Also hitchhiking was great: waited about 10 minutes and got a straight ride to Chemnitz from a woman and her child Paula - the first time I got a ride with children btw)(I also found the energy to explore Chemnitz and its modernist architecture in the evening, my muscles were a bit sore after hiking and hitchhiking, but I’m so full of energy when I travel, whereas I’m always tired and lazy when I’m at home, idk) -- source link
