Small Kneipp treading pool in the middle of the forest. The pool is constantly fed by stream water. A great idea!

Magical forests on Haardtberg

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

A colorful mix of hornbeams, spruces, oaks and a few larches and beautiful paths - sometimes wider, sometimes narrower - take you straight into the soothing silence of nature.

Lauerbach Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

Lauerbach was once a church village. In the small wood below the Lauerbach chapel there is a memorial cross at the site of the former church ruins. The ruins of the wall were excavated and used as building material.
