Unfortunately, the path there is completely overgrown and impassable. As of June 25, the descent isn't worth it.

A grotto in honor of the Holy Mother of God has been built from lava at the church entrance, with an altar table in the largest grotto.

Iron ore search tunnel in the Grundwies district of Niederscheidweiler. When the last ironworks in Eisenschmitter closed in 1868, the ore search continued. Around 1890, a 35m long walk-in tunnel was driven horizontally into the mountain here in the Alfbachtal near Grundwies. Also in the valley of the Sammetbach, in front of the confluence with the Alf, an ore exploration tunnel about 10 meters deep from this period has been preserved and other tunnels that have been forgotten are located on the south side of the Manderscheider saddle and the north side of the Moselle basin. According to Section 39 of the Federal Nature Conservation Act, the bat protection period begins on October 1st and ends on March 31st. During this period, bats are legally prohibited from entering caves, grottos, bunkers, tunnels and other potential hibernation dwellings. Source: Kulturdb.de

Former mine Goldglück Niederstadtfeld, Niederstadtfeld municipality description [...] The mine that was operated in the previous century should not go unmentioned. The field names "Am Bleiofen" and "An der Bleireinigung" are still reminiscent of this former mine. In 1858 it employed 12 to 15 miners who came from Niederstadtfeld and Üdersdorf. The mine, which was located on a mountain east of the valley of the Kleine Kyll in the direction of Schutz, was probably of Roman origin, because there was already a tunnel when the work in the mine began. A tunnel still exists today, but the three shafts on the top of the Bleiberg were filled in for safety reasons after the Second World War. In the mine, which was called "Goldglück", silver, lead and copper were extracted. The ore, which was melted into blocks, was transported to the large works in Mechernich and Bleialf with the help of ox carts. There is still a registered water right to discharge the waste water from the mine into the "Kerlsbach", which flows into the Kleine Kyll. Work in the mine was temporarily suspended, for example in the years 1858 to 1907, for reasons that were not known. After a long interruption, production in the mine was resumed in 1907 and again it was Niederstadtfelder and Üdersdorfer who found work there. However, in order to get to the ore in the deeper regions, a transverse shaft had to be built from the deep "guy". In 1915 the work in the mine "Goldglück" was finally stopped due to the strong effects of the war. During the war, some families from Niederstadtfeld still used these tunnels as bunkers.
