    Tips

    Along the Reitsteig, where the former "industrial facilities" are believed to have been based on the slag finds, our tour leads to the right at around 566 meters above sea level in the direction of the "Kleiner Hirschenstein", an impressive rock massif. An old beech tree, whose mighty roots cling to the rock, and the silence, which is interrupted by the gentle rustling of the leaves, exude a touch of times long past. Our ancestors say that it was a sacred grove. From a geological point of view, this is the border of the Kirchberg granite massif, shown on a display board. The ancient tree disappeared a few years ago, and a new one is growing up.
