    Oderwitz is located at the foot of the 510m high Spitzberg. From there, you have a wonderful view of the 3 very well-preserved post mills and a still functional water mill. You can admire part of the approximately 450 well-preserved half-timbered houses in the town along the Umgebindehausstraße along the Landwasser. The path leads you on an asphalt road from Niederoderwitz to Oberoderwitz.

    Author’s recommendation

    Optionally, the route can be extended along the Landwasser and the beautiful half-timbered houses in the direction of Niederoderwitz and Oberoderwitz.

    A detour to the very nicely located public bath, 3 riding stables, or the summer toboggan run on Spitzberg is also worthwhile.
