    Even today, the Schwarza is considered the most gold-rich river in Germany, from which, according to tradition, up to four tons of pure gold were mined in the 16th century.

      A wonderful to look at (almost) wild river that meanders through the Schwarzatal.

        Very clean and natural river, with many faces and great play of colors. It rises near Scheibe-Alsbach and flows into the Saale near Rudolstadt. At Schwarzburg it forms a great loop through the landscape. It is a trout water and until 1800 gold was panned in it.
