Hiking

Gustav Liebes Dachschieferbruch, known for short as "Liebesbruch", stands out decades after its closure, especially because of its huge heap. The location on the southern slope of the Eisenberg is a landmark that can be seen from afar. On the sun-drenched southern slope of the Eisenberg, a unique fauna made up of several dozen species of moss and lichens was able to establish itself over the decades.
