The Spa Route runs right through the heart of the Düben Heath Nature Park. The circular route offers a lot of well-being and relaxation with its two spa towns Bad Düben and Bad Schmiedeberg and the gentle hills, forest, and heath landscape. Nature lovers can discover the unique flora and fauna and follow the tracks of the beaver, the emblem animal of the region. The two spa towns invite you to linger with their impressive old towns, their spa parks, Kneipp treatments, or cozy cafés.
