A tour around Görlitz's local mountain, the Landeskrone. The route includes a fitness trail (sporty) and an educational bee trail (informative).
Walk around Görlitz's local mountain, the Landeskrone, and discover the fitness trail and the bee nature trail. The trail takes you through the forest and along the fields. You have a beautiful view of the surrounding area. The summit of the Landeskrone (420 meters high) is on the route, with a wonderful panoramic view from the small observation tower.
The Landeskrone is of volcanic origin and was formed around 34 million years ago in the Tertiary period. The first traces of settlement date back to the Bronze Age. The legendary mountain has a rich history and the area has been protected since 1953 due to its special geological formation. The approx. 170 steps of Lindenallee take you halfway up the basalt cone. The road leads up a comfortable incline to the mountain saddle. There are explanatory boards on the Landeskrone nature trail about the flora and fauna at exposed points. Other hiking trails are well signposted.
