    Hiking

    The Letztbergweiher is a small natural jewel and worth visiting at any time of the year. It is not a naturally formed body of water, but was created in the 14th/15th century specifically for silver mining in Schönau. It also served as a watering hole for livestock.
    Today, the pond is a protected wetland habitat with a rich diversity of plants and animals.

    Hiking

    The Letztbergweiher did not originate naturally, but is a remnant of the old silver mining history in Schönau. The pond was artificially created in the 14th/15th century to drive various equipment. But it also served as a watering hole for animals.
