    A cosy vantage point, the so-called Schwammerling, invites you to linger before you reach the former Langenau forester's house in the valley.

      Only a few meters above Langenau, the path leads directly through the abandoned Forsthaus property.

          From the rock, you can see one of the abandoned houses from above
