The circular route around Wehrsdorf and Sohland offers wide views of the gentle landscape and lets you experience the special features of the two villages up close. If you do not want to start the circular hike in Wehrsdorf, you can begin at various points, e.g. the Sohland reservoir, the local history museum, or the Prinz-Friedrich-August Tower, or you can also hike only parts of the route.
The municipality of Sohland a.d. Spree consists of three villages closely connected to each other.
Of great importance is the large number of Umgebinde houses especially in the village of Wehrsdorf, which can be experienced up close with this hiking proposal. In combination with old granite troughs or some sundials on the gables, the gaze can wander past the old houses with unique timber construction over the gently spread landscape of the Upper Lusatian Highlands.
Through quiet forests where only the wind in the trees and birds sing, the adventurous hiker wanders into the village of Sohland, where wonderful views and interesting buildings towards the village center can be admired. The path then continues along the reservoir, a recreational area with a good opportunity for a strengthening break on or by the water. Returning to the start of the circular route through quiet streets, one can take a rest at the Leuner quarry in Wehrsdorf and enjoy the unique view of Wehrsdorf.
