The circular trail, named after the regionally typical crop Heedekorn (buckwheat), runs between the "Niederlausitzer Landrücken" ridge and Calau Switzerland. A difference in altitude of almost 60 metres must be overcome during the hike. This is unusual for Lower Lusatia, but for guests it means a relaxed hike and full enjoyment of all the senses: from the frog concert at the pond, the silence in the vast forest, exploring the Plins villages and, of course, climbing the brick tower. A must for every hiker, climbing up to a height of 38 metres. A total of 216 steps have to be climbed to see the Jänschwalde power station near Cottbus, the F60 visitor mine or the Lusatian Mountains on a clear day. Incidentally, 93,850 clinker bricks from the former brickworks in Buchwäldchen were stacked on top of each other for the tower.
