    Hiking

    The "Kähnelbahn"
    The line consisted of small boats hung on a wire rope, hence the name.
    and was used for the transport of lime.
    The 2664 meters between the mine and the station were bridged by 19 masts. These masts were between 8 and 18.5 meters high. The largest free span was between mast 19 and the station. There, more than 258 meters had to be bridged.
    At the highest point, the cable had a height of 799 meters.

    The Dratseilbahn connected the Hermsdorf lime works with the Holzhau station.
