A special feature are the numerous sources that come across the surface of the forest. Some of them are rich in minerals and have been used by humans since ancient times because of their healing power. The Obernwöhrener "sulfur spring", which is well to find on appropriately signposted trails from any forest visitor tastes good, but should be healthy.
