There are 7 stations on the topic of gold in the Upper Palatinate on this 3.5 km long circuit. The gold nature trail leads through a remarkable landscape, the show paws are well made and the paths are easy to walk and signposted. A detour to the "Greinerschleif" is worthwhile.

This station is about the glass industry. After the decline of the iron industry, water and hydropower were used to refine glass. There were numerous iron hammers in the Upper Palatinate and the existing buildings and facilities were now used to grind and polish the glass.

At station 1, directly at the hiking car park, the focus is on the fascination of gold. Brief introduction to the gold educational trail, an overview of the dates for guided hikes and advertising for the Doctor Eisenbarth and City Museum in Oberviechtach.
