    A holdover from mining in Trusetall. The tunnel entrance is closed but an impressive sight.

      Old tunnel which unfortunately cannot be visited

        The Trusetal geology and mining trail provides a fascinating insight into the mining history of the region.
        In the "Hühn" visitor mine, the tunnels in which fluorite and barite were mined until 1990 are located 500 m below ground.
        Today, visitors can enter the tunnels on the "Hühn-Express" mine train.
        The Trusetal waterfall (ND) is an impressive natural spectacle.
        This wildly romantic waterfall was built in 1865 and from Easter to October the water of the Truse river is diverted over a rock face made of porphyry and granite.
        In three cascades it falls over 58 m into a collecting basin, from where it continues to flow in its actual riverbed.
