It's nice to drive nearby, and often with a view of the stream! You sometimes see animals or anglers...

A great place to stop for a bite to eat, with light and light meals. The outdoor seating is lovely. The food was delicious.

Horbacher Mühle is open again. Alpaca hikes are also available from here, by appointment. A great experience for families.

It looks quite romantic with its lichen, moss-covered walls, and ancient gravestones. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Cyriakuskapelle_Meisenbach
