The ascent to the tower 1.,- p.E. It's worth it for us, great view from the tower. Next to the tower also a public toilet. Good refreshment possible in the restaurant.

Hiking is almost too banal, walking is more accurate here. I hadn't expected this on our second stage on the Lausitzer Schlange.

The "Hofewiese" beer garden, lined with large trees, is located next to a horse farm. The buildings belonging to the "Hofewiese" are currently being restored. This was once the foal breeding ground of Augustus the Strong, and hay for the horses was harvested in the stable yard. The construction work will not disrupt beer garden operations. The beautiful and spacious beer garden offers Wi-Fi, card payments, food and drinks, and covered seating.

The Hofewiese is always worth a trip. There is a great beer garden in the middle of nature. Regional food and drinks are also offered at a moderate price. There is plenty of space for children to play and run around. Absolutely recommended for walkers, hikers and cyclists.
