Beautiful path with a pleasant slope and some quaint "Canyon" sections. In former times the mine railway went up here.

Old railroad line

Highlight • Trail

Part of the squirrel trail from Niederfischbach. Highly frequented on weekends by families with children. So better go there during the week.

Old adit of the Fischbacherwerk mine

Highlight • Historical Site

Iron ore and lead ore containing silver used to be mined at this point, only a few remains remind us of it 🫡 most probably the rock breakthroughs of the mine railway. Here you can breathe history🏛️
