The local mountain of Görlitz, called Landeskrone (420m above sea level), is located directly at the "Hiking Trail of the German Unity" (blue mark). The area is a nature reserve (approx. 50 ha). Along the paths you can find many information boards about the flora and fauna of the mountain. Via Aufgangstraße you will reach Lindenallee. Take the stairs and continue walking along Fahrstraße towards the summit. During the walk you will pass hexagonal basalt columns that are very characteristic of the region.
From the top of the mountain you have a breathtaking view of the city, Berzdorf Lake and the mountain ranges of the mountains of Zittau, Jizera Mountains and Sudeten Mountains. Ještěd with its prominent viewing tower and Sněžka (approx. 70 km as the crow flies) can be seen on a clear day, too. On the mountain saddle there is a restaurant with hotel. Near the summit a monument is located, the "Bismarck Tower". From here you have a beautiful view of Berzdorf Lake.
