Mountain biking
Schmidmühlen does not owe its place name to geographical, geological or settlement-specific features, but to two important branches of industry, both of which are dependent on water power: forges and mills. The upper and lower mills were located on the left arm of Lauterach, and several forges on the right arm of the river delta, which developed into important hammer mills. In an iron hammer, the iron was melted out by a hammer driven by a water wheel. The iron hammers smelted iron ore with charcoal in the so-called racing hearths, in which the iron melted.
