    One of the oldest mines in the region is the "Alte Mahlscheid" pit, which is mentioned as early as 1478 as a Saynian silver, lead and copper mine.

    The "Blue Halde" located here on the way to the Hohenseelbachskopf... consists of overburden from the upper areas of the ore deposit. The name can be traced back to the blue lead-copper mineral Linarit, which was found in large quantities as a coating on the rocks of the heap in earlier times.

        Small MTB playground with some small hills in the slope. Selection of the line from different gradients possible.
