Romantically wild brook valley. Pleasantly cool, especially in summer. The legend of the Trübenbach valley "The loyal servant Trübet guards in a hidden cave where the water falls on the rocks, until today the jewelry chest of his mistress, which went into the realm of the dead when the Kyrburg was destroyed." (Flyer by Kirn-Land)
