hike · Saxony

Route overview

Loop of 9.6 km, start and finish: Zeschnig. Around 200 m of climbing makes for a solid effort, without extreme elevation swings. About 2 h 5 min on the move (hiking, base pace 4.5 km/h) — a good plan for a short outing.

The route starts at 322 m above sea level and is uniform throughout: km 0–10 rolling (+330 m / −330 m). The high point is at km 7, at 351 m above sea level. The route passes through, in this order: Heeselicht (km 9).

The course partly follows waymarked trails (Wanderweg der Deutschen Einheit (Görlitz - Seiffen), Kamenz - Stolpen - Kuhstall (Sächs. Schweiz)).

The surface is varied, ranging from dirt track to gravel.

For a meal: Scheibenmühle (restaurant, km 1) and Gasthof & Pension Bockmühle (restaurant, km 5).

204 m Elevation gain is computed from a terrain model along the route line. Recordings from GPS devices can report higher values — owing to the slightly longer distance actually covered, to measurement inaccuracy, and to device-specific filtering. Differences of 10–15% are entirely possible.
