Circular trail around the "Königsbrücker Heide" nature reserve
A very special piece of nature awaits you just outside Dresden in Königsbrück. The regional train takes you from Dresden to an extraordinary corner in just over 40 minutes: the Königsbrücker Heide. The former military training area is now an important nature reserve and local recreation area.
On this tour, you will circle the Königsbrücker Heide once completely. Along the way, you will come across concrete witnesses to the Cold War: old bunkers, abandoned barracks and an officers' mess. Nature has reclaimed the area and now the only "hunters" are wild boar and wolves.
There are also countless beautiful lakes waiting for you. Take your time to explore the Königsbrück Heath off the beaten track and discover beaver lodges, the Heath Tower and one or two relics of history.
