Hiking trails

in the Düben Heath Nature Park

The Düben Heath, located south of Lutherstadt Wittenberg/north of Leipzig, is part of the natural river landscape between the rivers Mulde and Elbe. It is the largest mixed forest area in central Germany and became a nature park in 1992. Here, many hiking/nature trails traverse beautiful heath forests and moorlands, passing small forest lakes, romantic clearings and tranquil places.

Tour: Heath & Beaver

On the approx. 30 km of the Heath & Beaver-tour running from Bad Düben to Bad Schmiedeberg, forests alternate with open heath landscape. The hiking trail is the first quality hiking trail established in the Düben Heath, fulfilling 32 defined quality characteristics.
With luck and perseverance, hikers may discover beaver lodges in the Hammerbach valley or even catch a glimpse of a beaver. Besides the charming landscape, the hiking trail also offers interesting cultural aspects. The route touches the last active charcoal kiln (Eisenhammer) in the Düben Heath.
