Gröditzer Skala, Protected valley along Löbauer River in Weißenberg, Germany.

The Gröditzer Skala spans 39 hectares of forested terrain with steep cliffs, diverse vegetation, and a winding river cutting through limestone formations.

During the Elster glacial period, the Löbauer River carved deep into the North Lausitz graywacke, creating the current relief of the Gröditzer Skala.

The area features the Moses Rock with inscriptions from Horace's verses, reflecting the early 19th-century landscaping efforts by local manor owners.

Visitors can explore the area via the Mill Trail connecting Weißenberg, Weicha, and Gröditz, or walk across the converted railway viaduct with ten arches.

The Gröditzer Skala contains specific plant species including mountain maple, large-flowered foxglove, and sweet spurge in its south-facing slopes.
