As soon as you discover it, it’s more than likely that you’ll fall in love with the cultural diversity of the Tri-Border region. We are delighted to be able to offer, together with our partners from the Lusatian Mountains, this regional tourist guide. Our cross-border region of the Zittau Mountains and Lusatian Mountains Natural Park offers a wide range of different ways to spend the holidays while enjoying a memorable experience at the same time. You can find plenty of valuable, practical information and notes on a number of trip ideas and leisure activities in this brochure.
