The short family tour starts at the Obermühle restaurant and first takes you along the Oder-Neisse cycle path along the Neisse to the park railroad, passing the Neisse Viaduct, the 475 m long viaduct that connects Poland and Germany by rail. You can also see the Robert Oettel monument. Robert Oettel was a merchant, town councillor and founder of German pedigree poultry breeding.
At the park railroad, you can take a ride on the vintage park railroad (closed in winter). There is also a playground where the little ones can play. There is also a ruined restaurant and lookout tower on the vineyard, which is a tip for photographers. The trail then takes you past the Landskron BRAU-MANUFAKTUR visitor center, which is particularly interesting for adults.
On the way back, you walk through the "Friedenshöhe" park, from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the viaduct from above.
