Zittau's historic old town

Highlight • Historical Site

A beautiful city with poor bike lanes. Fortunately, most sidewalks are now only signposted as such, with the additional information "open to cyclists." A good solution for children.

The "city guide train" actually starts at the narrow-gauge railway station in Oybin. From there you go to Zittau with the Bimmelboahn 😉 The way back from Zittau to Oybin was therefore not a hike......🚂 😇

We went to Oybin today, started in Zittau with the narrow-gauge railway to Oybin, did a long hike there and then went back.
The weather was good, there were lots of people out and about.
The train was quite full but when we were hiking it all went away and we were able to look at everything in peace.
