    Hiking

    Pioneer path on the Hammerhalde.
    When walking along the forest path, beautiful lay stone carvings can be seen on the left and right on several rock surfaces.
    Officers and NCOs of the K. B. II. Army Corps chiseled several personal references on the bare rock walls in 1896. They wanted to document that it was they who dug and blasted this difficult path into the steep slope of the mountain. During off duty and perhaps out of sheer boredom, there was an opportunity here to practice her skills as a stone cutter.

    Thanks to the soldiers of the "Royal Bavarian 2nd Pioneer Battalion" from Speyer who built this path.
