나이세-말세탈 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The Forst – Weißwasser railway line, on which the Groß Kölzig station was located, was in operation from 1891 to 1996. The buildings of the former station are now privately owned.

A beautiful area for hiking and cycling.

Always good for a short stopover!

Unfortunately, the Fairytale Forest circular trail from Zelz onward is so overgrown that you'll need a bush knife/brush cutter. Brambles, nettles, and man-high grasses—it's a shame it's not maintained. 09/2025

Very nice!

Between the old trees, where the Neisse River flows leisurely, lies a bridge that is more than just a crossing. It connects two places that were once a single village – Zelz and Siedlec – and were separated by history and geography for decades after the war. Today, bicycles once again roll here instead of border patrols. The Neisse Valley Bridge was opened in 2008, after more than sixty years of waiting and planning, as a visible symbol of the partnership between the German town of Zelz and the Polish town of Trzebiel. Anyone traveling here today not only crosses a border, but also a piece of European reconciliation. From the German border post under the large oak tree, you have a beautiful view of the technical structure – unspectacular and, precisely for that reason, touching. Cyclists like to briefly push their bikes aside, look across the river, and take a photo. Perhaps also because the place exudes a quiet solemnity – and because history doesn't intrude here, but rather sits quietly there.

Thank you very much for the link.
