Hiking

Werchow is the gateway to Calauer Switzerland. In no time you are past the Goldborn and through hell, up to the plateau and to the brick tower.

But it's worth pausing here and there: spotting a golden carriage between the iron ocher clouds in Goldborn ;-), taking a look at…

Goldborn Spring, Calauer Schweiz

Highlight • Natural Monument

That was once the most productive source in Lusatia - lignite mining means that less water is now escaping. The natural monument is definitely worth seeing.

Hölle Ravine

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

This beautiful Kerbtal (red marking) is called "Hell" and is really fun to walk through: unspoilt, narrow and dark, almost a bit mystical. The only drawback: too short. At the …

The wooden predecessor, which opened in 1999, was already a popular destination for tourist hikes in Calauer Schweiz and a well-known landmark of the surrounding "Plinsdörfer". Due to structural damage …

Fieldstone houses in the Plins villages

Highlight • Historical Site

In the Plins villages of Weißag, Zwietow and Gosda there are numerous fieldstone buildings to admire: houses, barns, gatehouses, walls. The building material was plentiful along the land ridge, an Ice Age terminal moraine.

November 25, 2021,Der Ziegelturm im Luckaitztal

Movement is important! Why?? I couldn't believe it when I read the article.
"Around 40 percent of adults said that they had put on weight significantly since the beginning of the pandemic - an average of 5.6 kilos."
We don't want to be there. So in the hiking boots and off he goes Peter, Heidi too.
The brick tower in …

The last part is very overgrown. It is best to take the path half right before the Lugteich to the Goldbornquelle and then back to the car park.

January 2, 2022,Calauer Schweiz: Dem Himmel so nahe und zum Schluss durch die Hölle

Thanks to Hans-Peter and Heidrun, we dared to venture into the rugged mountains of Calau Switzerland. We already know Bucksche and Hohburger Switzerland and of course the Saxon one. Even if the end here at 161 m (Kesselberg), it was a nice and interesting loop. The views here are perhaps not that overwhelming, of course, but the Niederlausitzers have managed …

Today January 7th, 2024 to Calau Switzerland.
The starting point of the hike is the rest area near Weißag. From there you can easily walk to the brickworks tower. What does Goldborn do in between? I don't know it. From the brickworks tower we continued towards Kuhringsberg. However, we didn't climb it because of hell. What was interesting for us …

@Deleted User yes, it is hilly there and I have seen a lot of MTB trails. It's also worth taking a bike 😀

The main thing is not to just sit around - neither in the car nor at the desk! 😌

After a work assignment in the Elbe-Elster district, nothing much drove me home, but all the more into another flatland Switzerland near Calau.
I was particularly attracted by waypoints like "Schlucht" (Gorge) and "Hölle" (Hell). For Brandenburg standards, these are real …
