The barrier-free hike around the Landeskrone in Görlitz offers wheelchair users and people with walking frames a unique opportunity to explore the breathtaking landscape of Upper Lusatia. 

The Görlitz Landeskrone is the famous landmark of the city of Görlitz and a popular excursion destination. The circular route around the Landeskrone is an alternative to climbing to the summit. The approximately 3.5 kilometre route offers well-surfaced paths and is therefore also suitable for wheelchairs and walking frames.  Most of the route runs through woodland along the foot of the Landeskrone, which provides pleasant shade and makes it an ideal excursion destination even on hot days. The regular benches along the route invite you to relax, take a break and enjoy nature. Inquisitive visitors can also explore the Görlitz/Schlauroth educational bee trail, which starts in the immediate vicinity of the route and runs towards Schlauroth, and learn interesting facts about bees and the production of honey.
