This section of the trail is characterized by narrow dams that are still partially preserved and on which the path runs. A nature trail explains the history. Hopefully, wood was floated here over long distances. Artificially erected; must have been a huge effort. (See also Flößersteig in Kirnitzschtal - but there the brook was already there!)

Hiking

A beautiful nature trail leads along the Neugraben rafts on both the German and Czech sides... here to the Fláje dam. Some of the ditches have been leveled, but most of them are clearly visible and later on are still filled with water.
A great walk through nature.

Hiking

The Alte Flossgraben can also be walked on in winter. The snow crunches wonderfully under your hiking boots. But open your eyes! The path goes over roots and is more of a beaten track in places. Just lovely.
