The summer footbridge connects Bischofswerda and Goldbach, and the Way of St. James runs over it. A pleasantly sheltered and shaded spot in summer is just the thing to take a short break.

A covered rest area with a view invites you to linger. The Saxon Way of St. James, among other routes, passes by here.
