Valtenberg and hiking experiences

A specific hike classified as challenging, covering 27.58 kilometres, begins at Neukirch/Lausitz Ost railway station and leads through the Upper Lusatian Highlands to the Kälbersteine. If you plan this route, you should take its length and difficulty into account when making your own arrangements. The Valtenberg should be considered separately as a landscape feature.

Local detail and regional context

There is also a specific local leisure feature away from the mountain: a skate park is located at the manor and is operated by the Neukirch youth centre. If your travel group wants to combine a longer mountain hike with smaller local leisure activities, Neukirch/Lausitz offers different ways to explore the area.
