Bombina, the fire-bellied toad, would like to invite you on a discovery journey through her habitat. Just follow the signs showing a sitting toad.

The route starts at the Fischereihof in Kleinholscha, leads through the protected area "Ponds between Neschwitz and Großdubrau," partly over meadows and fields and along ponds.

Four fallen trees above the Große Neuteich challenge the hiker in a special way - sometimes you have to climb over them and sometimes go under - but these hurdles are quite manageable and give the path its special natural character.

Along the way are information and activity boards. Children learn playfully which creatures live in and around the pond, what special features characterize them, and why their protection is so important. An observation tower also invites exploring nature.

Directions

From Kleinholscha, continue along the B96 over the meadows below the "Großen Holschaer Teich" and above the "Großen Neuteich" to the "Altteich." From here, the path leads further east, once around the Litzenteich, and finally back below the "Großen Neuteich" to Kleinholscha.

Anyone who wants can shorten the route at the "Altteich" and instead of turning left, take the right back path to Kleinholscha. The route in the short version is about 4.5 km long.

Recommended equipment

Day hiking backpack (approx. 20 liters) with rain cover, sturdy and comfortable footwear, weather-appropriate and durable clothing in multi-layer principle, if necessary telescopic poles, sun and rain protection, provisions and drinking water, first aid kit, pocket knife, mobile phone, if necessary headlamp, maps, insect repellent, tick card

Safety notice

The forest should not be entered in adverse weather conditions (danger of broken branches).

Due to patchy network coverage, it is advisable to download the route before starting.

Coming on the B96 from Bautzen towards Hoyerswerda, shortly before Neschwitz turn left to Kleinholscha. The Fischereihof is located at the end of the village.
