For a fairly long stretch, you can travel back and forth in the valley on the still-existing tracks on the Dreysene. The acacia shoots make the ride interesting for those sitting on the tree side, and there are plenty of views of the valley.

The factory buildings aren't exactly worth seeing. But the thatched-roof house or office building is a dream. —perhaps even nightmarish?

a great cycle path through the railway tunnel - the tunnel is beautifully lit.

A rest area at the train station. There's more than just tables and benches here, plus a nice place to linger.

It is not easy to admire this site because it is hidden by the trees in summer.
