Valtenberg, Mountain summit in Neukirch/Lausitz, Germany.
The Valtenberg rises to an elevation of 586.6 meters, marking the highest point in the Lusatian highlands of southeastern Saxony.
The König-Johann-Turm observation tower was constructed at the summit to provide military surveillance and later became a public viewing platform.
The mountain features both German and Upper Sorbian names, with locals referring to it as Sokolnik in the regional Sorbian language.
Visitors can access the mountain through multiple marked trails starting from the Sonneneck parking area, with the mountain hut operating from 10 AM to 5 PM.
The recently opened Legend Path includes digital elements with QR codes that present local folklore stories and riddles to hikers along the route.
