Hiking

Four so-called artificial ditches run along the hillside here; the upper one, the Zellerfeld artificial ditch, is best preserved.

Hiking

Four ditches running parallel to the slope lie along this path. The upper one is the Zellerfeld artificial ditch. The next ditch was located approximately 10 meters lower, roughly the diameter of a waterwheel. Another 10 meters lower, the third ditch, ran with the opposite slope. In this ditch, the water flowed back after powering a waterwheel, allowing another wheel to generate energy with the same amount of water. The fourth ditch was located near the upper Spiegelthal pond.

Cycling

The Zellerfelder Kunstgraben is the uppermost of 4 graves at a distance of approx. 10 vertical meters each, which corresponds to the diameter of a water wheel. The trenches served to supply water to the mining industry and to drive the water wheels.
