This small lookout tower stands on the edge of the lake of friendship. Inside is a nice Schnizerei, which refers to the beaver nature trail. From the upper floor you have a beautiful view of the lake.

History to touch: the remains of the Soviet base and the proximity of a possible nuclear war make you think.

A control point / information board and a small 1-man bunker are accessible.

October 28, 2021,Auf dem 🦦Bieber- &🗼Turmpfad in der Königsbrücker Heide und Neues Lager
Today we went to the Königsbrücker Heide along the beaver and tower path with the dreamlike autumn weather 🍂 ☀️ with the goal to the old bunker area, which was the Red Army camp for nuclear warheads.
I got the inspiration from “Fienchen93”, thank you very much for that! 😊
The tour name is also chosen by her and so …

There is more than just beautiful scenery to admire in the Königsbrücker Heide wilderness area. The beaver path around the now beautifully designed Lake of Friendship is very close to nature. With the Haselberg Tower on the Wettinhöhe, a wonderful observation tower was created and in the middle of the forest there are also many remnants of the Soviet Army …

In wonderful autumn weather, we made a very beautiful tour steeped in history. The area was used as a prisoner-of-war camp during WWI and WWII. Then came the CIS armed forces until 1992 and used the area as a military training area.
There are still many relics from that time to be seen.

Today we went to the Königsbrücker Heide for a tour that I became aware of thanks to @Fiene unterwegs.
First it went over the beaver path through forests and past the beautiful Lake of Friendship. Then via the tower path to the Haselberg tower, with a fantastic view! 🤩
My highlight was of course the Lost Places in the "New …

A family hike along the edge of the Königsbrück Heath, with stops at the Lake of Friendship, the Haselberg Tower on Wettin Hill, the old World War I war cemetery, and the former barracks grounds. I really need to explore the latter in the spring, as there's so much more to discover there. We finished with a walk around the …

Starting point of today's tour is a small P on the B 98 west of Königsbrück. The Königsbrücker Heide is today's hiking area. But it will only be a very small part of it because the main part is north of Koenigsbrück. But it is certainly the most interesting part. In addition, very large areas of the heath are closed …

Today, accompanied, I hiked another tour from Nad Ine to.
Finally, in the most beautiful spring weather, out and about in the Königsbrücker Heide.
The beaver path is very beautiful and informative.
After the idyllic "Beaver Lake of Friendship"
you come to the highlight of the tour, namely the 34 m high Haselberg Tower.
The view is magnificent and the …
