Really very beautiful.

In the mid-19th century, flooding from the Göhl River posed a major threat to the mine in Bleyberg/Plombières: Water repeatedly penetrated the tunnels and claimed lives. To prevent this, a diversion of part of the river was requested and approved in 1861. By 1862, a tunnel several hundred meters long was built beneath the rock, keeping the Göhl away from the mine. The construction cost approximately 200,000 francs. The tunnel is a technical monument to mining engineering from an era when hazards were deliberately controlled while simultaneously harnessing hydropower. It demonstrates how work-related accidents were prevented while simultaneously harnessing resources.

The site of the former Plombières mine is home to species-rich calcareous grassland meadows, now protected as a nature reserve. The exceptional flora and fauna of this area are due to the heavy metal-rich soils, particularly the presence of zinc in the subsurface. Among the natural meadow relics, visible traces of the former metal industry can still be found: – Walls from former foundry floors – Remains of old smelting furnaces – Stones from former industrial buildings A small stream meandering through the area further enriches the ecological diversity of this special place. The "Gueule" viewpoint, which offers a glimpse into a cave opening, is particularly impressive and worth a visit.

Sturdy shoes are necessary, it can be slippery and wet.

A pristine stream valley in a fantastic landscape. Nature lovers will get their money's worth here.

Departed from Pont de Belleheid, (too) small parking, especially in busier periods, so leaving early is recommended. Reportedly, cars parked next to the road are sometimes towed away. The walk is definitely worth doing, but it can be quite busy. Lots of tree roots and stones, so good footwear is a must. Here and there you have to overcome a tough climb. Our experience was that the route marking could be a little better, but otherwise definitely recommended.

Park with "the house of the mining site", playground, information boards, picnic areas, sanitary facilities, direct access to the nature reserve and more. Info about the "Maison du Site Minier" at https://www.komoot.com/nl-nl/highlight/1038492

A very beautiful valley reminiscent of the Ninglinspo and especially Chefna torrents, with the mighty blocks of quartzite in the Sawe riverbed. A previously little frequented valley with great paths.
