The Döllnitztal cycle route leads from Wermsdorf through Mügeln to Oschatz, mostly along country roads and gravel cycle paths.
In addition to the main route, there is also a side route from Mügeln via Nebitzschen to Collm, which, at 312 metres, is the highest elevation in the otherwise flat heathland. If you feel like it, are fit and the weather is nice, this is an attractive alternative!

Directions
Cyclists can choose to start their route in Wermsdorf at two locations. One starting point is the town center, the other is at Horstsee. In Wermsdorf, we recommend visiting Hubertusburg Castle as a notable sight.
After the town of Glossen, you have the first opportunity to interrupt or change your journey by boarding the Döllnitzbahn, a narrow-gauge railway popularly known as "Wilder Robert".
The train runs between Oschatz and Mügeln, and there is the option of travelling to Kemmlitz once a day. The town is known for its kaolin mine, which provides the raw material for the famous Meissen porcelain.
The "Wilde Robert" runs parallel to the intermediate and final stages of the cycle path to Oschatz. This means that you can still board the narrow-gauge railway. The stops are easy to reach according to the map, although they deviate from the actual cycle path.
Secondary route Nebitzschen - Collm:
The secondary route (about 8 km) should only be chosen in good weather and good visibility. The trip to Collm requires a lot of stamina because the path goes up and down. With its height of 312 meters and a relative height of between 100 and 150 meters compared to its flat surroundings, Collm is a landmark that can be seen from far away.
