Winter walk near Görlitz - "Berzdorf Halden" and Lake

From the car park at Berzdorf Lake walk across the Kirchplatz to the centre of the village. Continue walking along Berzdorfer Straße, after 300 metres turn left into "Viehweg". Go straight ahead until you reach the edge of the forest.

Now follow the way which runs above the Pliesnitz stream. After the first rise follow the course of the way on the right to the next rise - now follow the course of the way on the left. You have to climb another rise. You will reach a small "crossroads", turn right and follow the course. You will reach a street and turn right. Now the way descends. If there is snow, you can sled.

At the foot of the street you see the Berzdorf Lake. Now follow the course of the street towards Blaue Lagune. When you arrive at the lake, turn right and follow the way along the shore back to the car park.

In winter there is no snow clearing and gritting. It can be slippery and there can be a lot of snow, so that it is difficult to walk.

If there is snow, it is recommended to take the sledge with you. The tour can also be done with cross-country skis.

Just stop for a while in the forest and listen to the birds. Or discover the different traces of the forest animals in the snow.

By car, follow B99 in the direction of Zittau, turn left at the roundabout traffic towards Tauchritz. Then turn into the "Am Wasserschloss" street.

Parking is possible on-site.

From the city centre (e.g. Demianiplatz stop) take tram line 1 in the direction of Weinhübel to the final stop "Weinhübel". From there take bus line E in the direction of "Blaue Lagune" to reach the "Tauchritz Ort" stop. Walk about 300 metres to the car park.
