    Hiking

    The slate dump in Dürrenwaiderhammer is an impressive testimony to slate mining in the Franconian Forest. The FrankenwaldSteigla 12-Apostle Trail leads below and directly over the slate dump.

    Hiking

    The slate dump above Dürrenwaiderhammer is more than just a storage place for overburden. It offers valuable habitats for rare mosses, lichens and flowering plants. At the slate table in front of the abandoned slate quarry, the view goes through the valley of the Oelsnitz to Dürrenwaid. The FrankenwaldSteigla 12-Apostel-Weg and the Geroldsgrün geoppath lead directly past the slate heap. The slate table is an ideal resting place for a hike.
