    Mountain biking

    In principle, it is always worthwhile to visit the historical triangulation points - if only because of the magnificent view. There are also here, at least to the south, because the spruce forest around the summit is slowly disappearing here too.
    However, that is also the crux of reaching the summit at all. The way up is very demanding, maybe you should just leave the bike at the Teufelskanzel and walk up the last few meters.
    There is also an educational trail here.

    Taubenberg station, coordinates 51 ° 1 '58 "N, 14 ° 28' 23" O.
    The Royal Saxon Triangulation (here with the historical proper name) is a land survey carried out in the years 1862 to 1890 on the territory of the Kingdom of Saxony with simultaneous creation of a trigonometric network.


    The aim was to precisely record the national territory scientifically and geodetically and to create the basis for the production of accurate maps by defining permanently marketed fixed points. The Grossenhainer baseline was determined as the benchmark.
