Walk around the Görlitz local mountain Landeskrone and discover the fitness trail and the bee educational trail. The path leads you through the forest and along the fields. You will have a beautiful view of the surrounding area. At the edge of the route is the summit of the Landeskrone (420 meters high) with a wonderful panoramic view and the Bismarck column, a monument created in 1901 by architect Wilhelm Kreis.
The Landeskrone formed about 34 million years ago from a volcano. A linden avenue planted in 1840 begins at the foot of the Landeskrone and meets the basalt cone at the road; 178 steps lead upwards. The hiking trails are well signposted.

Directions
You start at the terminus of tram line 2. Via the Aufgangstraße you reach the Landeskrone. The Pfaffendorfer Weg leads you southwest along the foot of the mountain past the ski meadow to a crossroads, where you keep right and continue along the foot of the mountain.
After about 250 meters you reach the fitness trail and the bee educational trail. Both run along the old Kirchsteig. There are many stations where you can exercise and many information boards about bees.
At the end of the Kirchsteig you arrive at the Schlauroth district. For those tired, regional bus line 146 returns from here to the Görlitz bus station. Otherwise, continue through the village, where you turn right from Dorfstraße into Schlaurother Straße back towards Landeskrone. There are also signs from the bee educational trail in the village.
We leave Schlaurother Straße to the left into the settlement and follow the Sandweg. This leads to an asphalt footpath towards Carolus Hospital. Now go straight on, where you have another beautiful view of the Landeskrone, and arrive in the Landskronsiedlung, where there is a bus stop at Nelkenweg. With bus line A you return to the city.
