    Hiking

    The copper holes are former ore mining sites in the Steinachtal. You can also explore these small caves.

    Hiking

    In the past, ore was actually dug here. You can still see the veins today. The advance is only about 3 meters.

    Hiking

    Small caves along the way, but it doesn't go far.
