Hiking on the Lissberg (154 meters above sea level) or through the Wolfsschlucht, which leads into the Neißetal at the NSG Schwarze Grube or a rest at the goat farm - this is recommended here.

There are several Marienberg hills in the Muskau Arch. After the Herrenberg, this Marienberg is the second highest elevation in the Polish part of Muskau Park.

Prince Pückler's grandfather actually grew wine here. A fire watchtower was built at the beginning of the 20th century. Below the hill are the Weinberghaus (formerly a tourist restaurant, now a private residence) and the Weinbergsee, a natural body of water. The Weinberg/Feuerturmberg is the second highest elevation in the former Weißwasser district after the Drachenberg.

The granite pillar embedded on the summit of the 175 m high Brandberg served as a first-order station for the triangulation of the European degree measurement. The Royal Prussian State Survey recorded the Märkisch Silesian triangular chain in the period from 1868 to 1872 and thus connected the triangular networks of the Kingdom of Saxony (Royal Saxon Triangulation) and the coastal survey with the Berlin base. The Brandberg station was number 21 in the Märkisch-Silesian triangle chain and from this station the peaks of Keulenberg, Hochstein, Rückenberg, Hutberg, Marienberg and Brautberg were targeted for the survey. Especially when connecting to the Saxon network, one benefited from the highly precise triangulation between Keulenberg, Strauch and Collm. The Märkisch Silesian triangular group has a connection to the Saxon triangular network in the south as well as a connection to the Thuringian Saxon in the west and to the Silesian triangular group in the east. In the north there is a connection to the Berlin line and the Elbe chain. The granite pillar is certainly not as impressive as the pillars with the inscriptions that give it its name, but it served the same purpose and had to be brought up the mountain in the 19th century. Although the Brandberg is not the highest mountain on the western flank of the Muskau Arch (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muskauer_Faltenbogen), it still lives up to its name today, with a fire watchtower on the summit for early forest fire detection (not public). The wooden signal pyramid above the pillar is quite crooked.

On the 162.8 m high Drachenberg you can enter your name in a summit book. How did the Drachenberg get its name? A legend tells that God created Lusatia and the devil put the coal on it. A dragon that settled here was supposed to protect the coal from humans. When humans began to mine the valuable raw material, dragon's blood seeped out of the dragon lying in the earth - known to us as red water. Little by little the kite dried up in the area between Krauschwitz and Weißwasser and left a large pool of blood: the brown pond. The back can still be seen today, because the many gies and elevations mark the peaks on the dragon's back. The largest of them is the Drachenberg. https://www.lr-online.de/lausitz/weisswasser/wie-der-drachenberg-zu-seinem-namen-kam-33304006.html
