ホーヴァルト周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

At 587 meters, the Valtenberg is the highest mountain in the Lusatian Mountains. The proud tower alone is worth a visit. An event operator was recruited for the restaurant in 2025 – who may also continue to run the mountain lodge as a tenant.

Wesenitz Spring and Valentin Adit Information The Wesenitz River originates at an elevation of 515 meters above sea level on the southeastern slope of the Valtenberg mountain, emerging from the entrance of a 60-meter-long mine adit known as the "Goldbergwerk" (Gold Mine). The Wesenitz was first documented in 1213. Valentin Adit at the Wesenitz spring on the southern slope of the Valtenberg mountain.

The lodge and the King John Tower on the summit are closed because the tenant and the municipality are at loggerheads with each other. Let's hope that both parties can come to an agreement at some point.

The Wesenitz starts out very small; only a trickle flows from its source on the hillside (actually the tunnel water of the Valentin Erbstollen).

Unfortunately the inn is closed. There are currently no opening hours (summer 2024).

Entry prohibited. Monitored with wildlife cameras.

The Valtenbergbaude and tower are unfortunately closed until further notice: https://www.saechsische.de/bautzen/neukirch-lausitz-valtenbergbaude-paechter-posche-kuendigung-zeiler-monsterroller-5899350-plus.html

As of April 28, 2024, the quarry appears to be back in operation! All access or driveway routes have been "blocked" with stone blocks. The lake shown in the photos has been pumped out except for a small remaining hole. The forest in the immediate vicinity has been cleared and a lot of soil has been temporarily stored in the now open field. If you follow the hiking trails available in komoot in the immediate vicinity of the quarry, it can be dangerous!
