Route description

Before the tour starts, it is worth taking a look at the Großer Schauener See lake. Here you can observe common terns nesting on special breeding rafts. Ospreys circle high in the sky and suddenly plunge into the water to catch fish. The muffled calls of bitterns can often be heard in the reed zones.

The route initially heads north-east along the main road in Groß Schauen. After about 1.2 kilometers, turn left onto Philadelphiastrasse, which after 1.5 kilometers leads to the village of Philadelphia. There, the road “An der Fasanerie” branches off to the left. If you want to discover woodland birds, you can take a detour into the forest here. After just a few meters, you can hear the song of wood warblers and thrushes as well as the drumming of great spotted woodpeckers. With a bit of luck, you might even spot a lesser spotted woodpecker or black woodpecker.

Back on the route, continue along the Lindenweg at the edge of the forest. After one kilometer, the trail turns left and then continues for about 1.5 kilometers to Wolziger Weg. At a single house, the route turns south and leads through shady woods to Klein Schauen. The trail continues to Görsdorf-Busch, where redstarts and house sparrows can be observed in the gardens.

From here, a beautiful avenue, accompanied by the song of nightingales, leads back to the Köllnitz nature estate after about one kilometer.
