Connecting dbeaver to postgres hosted on remote server

Question

We are using postgres db hosted two servers away, (pardon my jargon) we usually connect through terminal like:

local =>(using google auth) ssh server 1 =>(using google auth) ssh server 2 => psql -h Hostname -U Uname -d DBName

But, this is a hectic process and I'd like to connect to the DB through Dbeaver.

I browsed online and I figured it could be done with SSH tunneling but I could only hop through one server and it does not connect to the other.

Appreciate your help, thanks in advance!

My trials:

ssh -A -t host1.host.server1.com \ -L 5432:localhost:5432 \ ssh -A -t queries.host.server2.com \ -L 5432:localhost:5432

and I couldn't successfully connect. Even if I did connect, T'd only be connected to the machine but to access the DB I'll have to run the psql command. I'm totally lost after this point.

This worked for me, but only connecting to a single remote host. Edit your connection, and in the Connection Settings->Main tab, put the following:

Host: localhost (or 127.0.0.1 if localhost doesn't work)
Database: your_database_name
User: your_database_user_name
Password: your_database_password

Then on the Connection Settings->SSH tab, enter the following:

Check "Use SSH Tunnel"
Host/IP: your_remote_host_name or your_remote_ip
Port: 22
User Name: your_remote_user (not database user)
Authentication Method: Public Key
Private Key: path_to_your_private_key (.pem or .ppk file)
Passphrase: your_private_key_passphrase (leave blank if you didn't use one)

Then test connection.
