Hiking

On this educational forest trail, young and old hikers learn everything about the native and non-native tree species (this was planted especially for the trail here). In addition, hikers can find information on the types of rock that were quarried here in the surrounding area. In the middle of the path you will find an information board about mining in the area and an old drill head.
