    Hiking

    Unfortunately, the real locations of the tower and the survey point a few meters away have fallen victim to basalt mining.
    These places are historically significant because they belong to the "nucleus" of the Gaussian triangle network, which formed the basis of the Gauss-Krüger coordinate system as a Cartesian coordinate system.

    Hiking

    The path is beautiful, there is a lot to discover and there is also a lot for children.
