    Hiking

    Right by the path lies a hidden mine, its entrance camouflaged with large stones during the development of the hiking trail. After heavy rainfall, water clearly seeps from the tunnel, which was last in operation in the 18th century.

    The pebbles visible here are not from this area but were brought in during the construction work.

    On the left side of the tunnel entrance, the ore or mineral vein is visible, consisting here of quartz, carnelian, and small amounts of iron ore (see photo).
