Almost 200 meters, the calf stone massif rises above Sohland and the Spree. On top of the wooded mountain you can discover many exciting rock formations. The largest rock directly at the summit can be climbed via a staircase. Above you can catch a glimpse of the surrounding hills and mountains between the tall and dense trees. The name calf stones probably dates back to the Thirty Years' War, when farmers from the surrounding villages hid their cattle up here.

Bieleboh Forest Lodge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

On top of the 500-meter-high Bieleboh is a quaint mountain cottage with overnight accommodation and a cozy dining room. Directly next to it is the 21-meter-high observation tower, which offers you an infinite view over the Lusatian Mountains. The tower is open year round and around the clock and the inn is open from Wednesday to Sunday from 11.00.

April 14, 2024,Etappe 2 Sohland - Neusalza-Spremberg (Bhf)
Today we had BREAKFAST!
And then at 8.30 a.m. the second stage of the Upper Lusatian Mountain Trail from Sohland to Neusalza-Spremberg was waiting. The landscape quickly captured us with its bizarre rocks, the many bodies of water, the vastness; and spring enchants everything with fresh green, yellow and white. The only hotspot today was the lodge on the Biehleboh, …

From Sohland a. Today we went along the Spree along the Spree to a reservoir and up to the Waldbühne. Further up to the imposing granite rocks Kälbersteine. Up to here some rain and fog 🌧. Then the weather gradually cleared up 🌤. Continue on mostly natural paths to Bieleboh with a lookout tower and hut, a cozy stop 🍻. …

Today our day began with a bright blue sky, the sun was shining and we set off freshly rested and in a good mood.🌞😎

One or the other piece of clothing quickly wandered into the backpack and off we went to the first sweaty climb😅...but this time also due to the sun...😉. There was still a little wheezing.

In contrast to the previous stage, the hiking trail here was partly very bad (especially the section between "Am Tannenhof" and the Flössel an den Teichen).

The second stage began with a very leisurely breakfast with the Henschel family (they have guest rooms) and went over the Kälbersteine and Bieleboh with the observation tower to Neusalza-Spremberg. Here we looked at the riding house which has a very interesting exhibition on the half-timbered houses and life in Upper Lusatia. The last 3 km we followed the Spree …

2nd stage on the Oberlausitzer Bergweg was rocked in very wet weather. The Kälbersteine were the first climb, and the rain didn't take long to arrive.
We immediately went to the refuge there and met three more hikers. You should also be the only ones on the entire tour.
We continued to the Bieleboh, where some sun peeked through again. …

the condition of the path is in parts miserable for a designated hiking trail.

Finally, I managed to do a section of the Upper Lusatian Mountain Trail again. The days are getting shorter quickly, which is why I closed my eyes again this morning at the time I was supposed to get up (it was too dark, the wind was whistling...).
2 hours later, it was time to get up, which is why I …
