Hiking

Today, the Donkey Trail is a pleasant hiking trail. The story behind it is that farmers wanted to avoid paying customs duties. Several mills in the valley are powered by the Mußbach stream. A toll station was built. The farmers would walk their laden donkeys across the Knoppenweth and thus avoid paying customs duties.

Narrow, beautiful section of the path. For an explanation of why the path is called that, see the picture of a signpost I posted.
