Seating on the Wertach

Unfortunately, not much of this "brilliant view" can be seen anymore, as the young forest, with its bushes and shrubs, now obscures everything. Sitting on a park bench, all you see is forest. Things were different in 2020.

Interesting excursion into history!

Pingen are funnel-shaped depressions in the terrain that were created by the near-surface mining of mineral resources such as ore or coal. These pits are the remains of historical mining activities in which the ore was mined directly on the surface or at a shallow depth. The miners followed the ore veins into the depths as far as was possible with simple means. When open-cast mining was no longer possible, the miners followed the ore veins into the interior of the mountains, sunk shafts (small shafts) and drove tunnels. There are several such historical pinge pits near Augsburg, particularly in the area of the Augsburg - Western Forests Nature Park. These relics of mining are now often covered by forest and offer interesting insights into the regional history of ore mining. Hiking trails, such as the St. James Pilgrimage Route from Augsburg to Reinhartshofen, lead past such pinge pits and enable hikers to discover these historical sites. For those interested, museums such as the Altenberg Mining Museum offer special tours of the pits, during which the origins and significance of these pits are explained. Such tours provide a vivid picture of historical mining and its impact on the landscape. The pits are not only evidence of past mining activities, but also valuable biotopes that provide a habitat for various plant and animal species. They are therefore important from both a historical and an ecological point of view.

The region around Wehringen is ideal for hikes along the Wertach. A particularly recommended route leads through the Wertach valley near Wehringen, past idyllic places such as the bank idyll on the Wertach and the Turmkopf natural forest reserve. This route offers varied landscapes and is suitable for all fitness levels.
