An interesting trail with information about the Donnersberg mining industry. It's not recommended to walk the trail in sneakers. The last 2 kilometers are country roads. Some parts are not easy to navigate.

October 2, 2023,🚶🏼‍♀️🪰😱Kupferweg II in der Bergbauerlebniswelt Imsbach

I lost the battle against 13,000 annoying flies today. I actually wanted to extend the pretty pretty tour. But no thanks. Today they were even more annoying than usual. I don't even want to know how many of them I ate today 🙈

A very nice lap, if it hadn't been for the countless mosquitoes that annoyed us along the entire route today. The hands and arms were constantly working to drive away the nasty little mosquitoes.
It was impossible to enjoy the beautiful viewpoints today, which was a shame.
Therefore, the tour will be done again in the fall.

...namely the K2 (Kupferbergweg 2) in the Imsbach mining adventure world.

A tour well worth seeing, with lots of interesting information about mining.
Constant companions were the annoying mosquitoes that gave no peace.
To drive away the tormentors, both arms rotate almost constantly in the air and the mountain up and down.
