By bus

There are public buses that take you up to the Bastei from the surrounding towns. Another possibility is the Bastei-Kraxler, an old refurbised bus that takes you up from Wehlen during the sommer month (first departure at the marketplace in Wehlen at 9:30am, from then every hour). The ride takes about 20 minutes and returnes to Wehlen every full hour (from 10am to 17am).
