    Tips

    The Drachenkehle is the path through the gorge from the former root spruce on the Sophienfiß up to the Krugberg, the highest elevation in Märkische Schweiz.

    The throats are a specialty of Märkische Schweiz. A humid climate prevails in the deeply cut gorges. Water constantly flows over the valley floor from springs and streams. Humid forest communities such as pedunculate oak and hornbeam forests or beech forests with interspersed ash, small-leaved and small-leaved lime trees, sycamore, sycamore and white elm can develop here. The herbaceous layer is rich in mosses, ferns and spring flowering plants such as maidenhair moss, polypody fern, herbaceous herb, hepatica and lesser celandine.

    Due to storm damage, especially fallen trees, the path was practically impassable for a while. However, these have been eliminated and the path is fully accessible. Coming from the Sophienfiß you go uphill at the signpost, which is in a nettle field and is hardly recognizable.
