From the freely accessible wooden observation tower, a wide view opens up over the surrounding forests, in the middle of which protrudes like a landed UFO Tropical Island. Especially in autumn with its golden colors, the view from above is worthwhile, because here the typical pine forests are mixed by one or the other deciduous tree. The heather lakes can only be partially seen from the tower. But you can see parts of the Köthener See.

Stones and signs with runes or similar symbol-like signs can be seen on the Streitberg and the paths to it. There is also a stone with a Sator square de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sator-Quadrat. The way from the south is very sandy. There are well-navigable, so far not marked paths from the north.

Really a great view! Afterwards, the descent to the heath lakes is worthwhile for a relaxing swim ...
