    Hiking

    Nice resting place on a south-facing slope (sunny!) - on the path from Legelbach (Ludwigsklause) up to the Nibelungenheim.
    Here you can still see the remains of an earlier quarry, in which stone was extracted for the walls of the Trift systems and the borders of the Legelbach during the times of the Holztrift.
    Particularly suitable: the locking table legs are not made of wood, but sandstone!
