    Hiking

    On the Gobert you can follow the border relatively quickly on the patrol path.

    Hiking

    The Plattenweg / Kolonnenweg is part of the inner-German border systems on the part of the former GDR. It was made from very weather-resistant concrete paving slabs, most of which are perforated. This allowed plants to grow through and the panels bonded pretty firmly to the ground.

    Hiking

    The patrol path on the former inner-German border is very easy to walk on. In some places you have a very nice panorama.
