The road from Philippsthal to Heimboldshausen runs through the middle of the Hattorf potash plant, the huge facilities of which stretch along both sides of the road. Even if the traffic on the street is quite heavy, the shared footpath and bike path is wide enough to get safely through the area and has enough space to look and take photos. A paradise for fans of industrial culture.
