The work would not be finished until Easter and there should be a temporary solution for hikers to cross the Schwedenloch during the May holidays. According to the National Park and Forestry Administration, construction work should be completed by the end of May. Until then, there is a signposted diversion on a scenic path from the Bastei over the Amselgrund to Rathen.
