    If you want to learn something about the history of granite extraction and stonemasonry, you can do this on the 3.5 km long quarry circular hiking trail on Epprechtstein. The gently rising hiking path leads past old walls and large tailings to six quarries (Lenks-Bruch, Alberts-Bruch, Geyers-Bruch, Schoberts-Bruch, Blauer-Bruch, Schloßbrunnen-Bruch), a powder chamber, a protective shelter and a loading ramp at the foot of the Epprechtstein. Information boards at the individual stations familiarize hikers with the creation of granite, its extraction, processing and transport.

        The Schlossbrunnen Bruch is named after a spring.
