Here you can rest well, although we always prefer the place under the castle, there by the water and always free!

The inlet to the hydropower plant can be admired from the rest area above the weir.

The Wesenitz flows here in the valley:

The Wesenitz rises in the Hohwald, part of the Lusatian Mountains, at a height of 515 m on the Valtenberg from the mouth of the Valentin Erbstollen, an old mine.

It flows through Neukirch, Bischofswerda, close to Stolpen and passes the Lusatian Fault at the so-called Teufelskanzel near Dürrröhrsdorf, where it enters the Elbe Sandstone. Here it flows through the Liebethaler Grund. In the Pirna district of Pratzschwitz it flows into the Elbe. The preglacial Wesenitz may have flowed eastwards in Oberneukirch through the Wilthen valley basin into the Spree; moraines and masses of gravel at the northern foot of the Dahrener Berg therefore ensured its current course to the west.

With a length of 83.6 kilometers, the Wesenitz is one of the longer right tributaries of the Elbe.
