To this day, the legend of the \"noble robber\" who took from the rich and gave to the poor is alive in folklore. Today, two circular hiking trails commemorate the formerly eventful time: the Pascherrunde Leutersdorf (11 km) and the Karasekrunde (3.5 km), which also touch a part of the field boundaries of Neugersdorf and Seifhennersdorf. Both lead through a charming landscape. Thus, not only historically interesting border stones at the former border of the Bohemian enclave can be discovered, but also the former robber's nest, the Kreibichschenke.
