Ridge Trail in the Salzgitter Heights near Lichtenberg

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Probably the most attractive section of the Salzgitter Höhenweg between Lichtenberg and Bad, interesting in every season. A wild garlic paradise in spring.

Blide catapult at Lichtenberg Castle

Highlight • Monument

The principle of the Blide is as simple as it is effective. The achievable values in terms of throwing weight and throwing distance are very impressive.

Castle Garden at Lichtenberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Anyone who wants to see a trebuchet will get their money's worth here. However, the image remains limited to flying stone balls. In the Middle Ages, the mere sight of one was often enough for the opponents to give up.
