There are five different song trails in this area. This is definitely not the Drinking and Joking Song Trail, which runs between the Landbrücke on the Niederwiesa/Flöha border to the Braunsdorf hiking parking lot, near the viaduct. It should probably be the Nature and Homeland Song Trail, which runs below the castle. gemeinde-niederwiesa.de/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Liederwege-Flyer-2012.pdf
