Beyond the Horizon

October 7, 2024

The mine railway embankment on the Kingfisher Trail takes hikers on a route steeped in history along a former railway embankment that once transported coal from the mines near Pohlitz to Schönfließ. This section of the route begins near the former Schierenberg tourist restaurant and winds its way past the horseshoe ponds, through dense forests and swampy areas. What was once a busy transport route for the coal industry is now an idyllic hiking trail that only hints at the traces of the past.

The path is surrounded by lush greenery, and the thicket of nature has reclaimed large parts of the route. Small relics of industrial use keep cropping up, reminiscent of the coal mining that once shaped life in the region. A pleasant sense of calm is felt, particularly in the shady sections of the forest, and the path offers numerous opportunities to be carried away by the silence of the surroundings.

This section of the Kingfisher Trail is not only a nature experience, but also a journey through the history of the Lusatian lignite industry. The vegetation that has reclaimed the terrain creates a special atmosphere that appeals to nature lovers and history buffs alike.
