Weifberg observation tower
The Weifberg Tower is located on the 477.8-metre-high Weifberg south of Hinterhermsdorf. The wooden structure was built in 2000 and replaces older viewing facilities from the 19th century.
The tower is almost 37 meters high in total, with the platform at around 32 meters. 173 steps lead to the viewing platform via an open spiral staircase. A knowledge quiz motivates children to climb up.
From the top, there is a wide view over the Saxon Switzerland National Park, the Lusatian Highlands and, on a clear day, as far as the Bohemian Uplands.
Access is via marked hiking trails from Hinterhermsdorf. The paths lead through mixed forest and easy uphill terrain. The tower is embedded in the network of paths around the Kirnitzschtal valley.
