    In the footsteps of the Kaunertal miners
    From the viewing platform there is a final short climb to the mine view (1,630 m). From a smaller platform you can see not only the valley floor, but also the former Tschingl mine in the middle of the steep, wooded mountainside. The further path leads down there. From around 1600 to 1750, silver-bearing pyrite and copper pyrite were mined in the imperial-state mine. The miners' holes (tunnels) were already known to the Kaunertal residents, but in recent times the ore processing plant (roastery) with processing hut has also been uncovered and rebuilt. One of the two narrow tunnels is accessible - flashlights and helmets are available. Explanations on information boards provide the necessary information about the former mining in the Kaunertal.
