The route Waldbad Rodau - Leubnitz Castle in the Vogtland Mill Quarter allows us to experience the landscape and one of the most important manors of the Vogtland equally. We start our hike at Waldbad Rodau.

The route we tested is 4.5 km long (without return to the starting point). There are 55 meters of ascent and 48 meters of descent to overcome. The entire path is paved with honeycomb slabs and shaped stones. In the Leubnitz locality, the paths are asphalted. The topography (e.g., 1.5 km climb) and length of the route require assistance pushing. After leaving the parking lot, we turn right and hike uphill along the Badweg running on the left side next to the bath. At the end of this path, we cross district road K7870 and continue the hike on Hundschwanzweg. We are now on a plateau and have a magnificent view of the Vogtland landscape. After about 1.7 km, we turn right onto Oberer Mittelweg. We follow this past Erlenteich. In the valley floor, we turn right onto Erlichtweg and follow it until we meet Nordstraße. At the beginning of the Leubnitz locality, the path is asphalted. We turn left onto Nordstraße and walk it to the main street, which we follow to the right. After a few meters, on the left side is Leubnitz Castle, built in early classical style, with its landscape park. The castle is equipped with a disabled toilet and an elevator.
