Only the name of the former mine building remains, but the sealed mine entrance is a reminder of the former iron ore mining operations. A lovely rest area with a spring.

You have to walk down to the water. It's important to wear waterproof shoes if you want to take a look inside. It's a bit muddy.

An old mining shaft that can only be reached by crossing a small river. This is definitely worth it as the shaft is a nice photo opportunity. But be sure to pay attention to your own safety! A little further down the mountain you will find the “Wolfgang Spring”. You can safely drink the spring water there and refresh yourself a little.

Between the tunnel and the path there is a small stream that has to be crossed. No problem in summer, but when there is a lot of water, you can't get across here with dry feet. This tunnel used to be open and we could still play there as children. Like all the other tunnels here, it is now equipped with a grid to protect the bats. But you can still take a look and on the information board you will find everything you need to know about this tunnel entrance.

This small cave is called "Zwergenloch" and the path is called "Save the trouble" because of a beautiful legend. According to this, the miners' families used to borrow the valuable silverware from the dwarfs for festivals, but only rarely returned it. At some point the dwarves got fed up and didn't give out their valuable silverware anymore, but just said "save the trouble". When I grew up here, the cave was still open and we played in it as children. After a long, narrow passage, the cave comes at the end. Like a room and there used to be benches there. Today the cave is blocked by a grid to protect the bats 🦇.

"SAVE THE EFFORT" The dwarves live in Bielstein, north-east of the old mining town of Lautenthal. Where the innermost makes an arc, there is a cave just above it, called the "dwarf hole" by the people of Lautenthal, but nobody dares to go there anymore. The people of the place used to come here regularly and got on well with the dwarves. Goods were exchanged, food was brought to the dwarves, and they lent them golden crockery for weddings and baptisms. But once, people didn't bring it back. Others say they put it dirty back in front of the dwarf hole. Since that day they have been angry with people and have never been seen again. If someone tries to borrow crockery and calls out "Please help" into the dwarf hole, all he hears from far behind out of the dark depths is "Save the trouble!" The dwarfs also like to play tricks on people, hide car keys, empty backpacks that were carelessly left at the Bielstein for a break or throw pineapples at hikers. When a miner, two hundred years or more ago, wanted to dig a tunnel, dug all day and pulled out the loose rock, the next morning he saw that everything was dug in again and the mouth hole was closed as if he had never dug there. Every day he tried again, always with the same result: the next morning everything looked as if he had never been here. "Save the trouble," said the people from Lautenthal, the dwarfs will probably always play badly with us. (written down by C.

The legendary dwarf cave :) The correct name is dwarf hole. We used to go in there when we were kids. The corridor is narrow and was already under water at that time. At the very end of the cave is a small room. Today the cave is blocked with a grid and is therefore ideal for bats 🦇

It's a shame you can't get in here. Fortunately, this tunnel belongs to the bats.

The tunnel mouth hole was properly prepared again and closed after a few meters. You can take a look at that.
