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 lower exit there is an interesting information board that explains the ecological importance and the previous year's renaturation measures and points out the rarity of this valley shape in the region. The best thing to do is walk down here from the Kuhringsberg, where you can go straight down to hell at the junction. If you have any concerns, just send a candidate up and see how they fare below. I did exactly that.

Hölle Gorge and Höllbach Spring

Highlight • Gorge

On the northern edge of Calauer Schweiz, near Werchow, is the "Hölle", an impressively incised notched valley. Several spring areas bring water to the surface here and once fed a swampy bog, on the edges of which the Lower Lusatian lowland spruce is at home.

Calauer Schweiz Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Completed April 2020 after a construction period of almost 1 1/2 years. Not yet opened due to Corona, therefore still closed. Unfortunately...
All technical data are included in the photos.
Accessible via a hiking trail from the center of Weißag‘s.
(Prehistory of the demolished wooden tower: (source Wikipedia)
The 22 m high observation tower Calau Switzerland, built in 1999, stood about 700 m northeast of the village on the Spitzberg. The tower was demolished in 2014 after a long period of closure due to damage to the woodwork.)

Picnic Area Luckaitztaler Brick Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view from the tower is worth it! The picnic area is great, as the tables and benches are made of bricks, it is a good idea to bring some seating mats.

Luckaitztal Brick Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

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 and vandalism, the decision to demolish it had to be made in 2014. The decision to demolish it also gave rise to the desire for a replacement building. The municipality of Luckaitztal also approached the town of Calau and found further support for the project. Under the set specifications of being able to build and maintain the new tower from a durable material, with a low-maintenance construction, at an affordable price, research came across an observation tower built in 2003 in Suderburger Land. After an on-site inspection in September 2014 by representatives from the municipality of Luckaitztal, the Altdöbern office and the town of Calau, the decision was made to build an identical tower, with appropriate local adaptations of the project, as a replacement building in Calauer Schweiz.
