The cycle path along the Schwarzbach is very beautiful.

Popular with mosquitoes in summer😉 The bank area was overgrown with blackberries.

This could have been an "abri", a half-cave, as a shelter for early humans from the Old Stone Age (Paleolithic), the oldest era in human history. It began on our 4.5 billion year old earth around 2 million years ago in East Africa, as evidenced by finds of skulls and bones and primitive tools made of stone and wood. Around 600,000 BC, small groups of Old Stone Age people also appeared in Germany. Based on the greywacke artefacts found here by local historian Albert Westrich, the archaeologist Emil Hofmann determined that they were used as scrapers, striking stones, graters and stingers as early as 600,000-800,000 years ago. His book "Altpaläolithische Fundplätze des Homo erectus heidelbergensis Schmitshausen", published in 2008, depicts the finds.

To the right and left of the path, in an area of about 1 hectare of forest, you will find more than 10 anthills inhabited by an estimated 10 million small red forest ants. (Formica Polyctena) In addition to explanatory signs, you will also find a covered hut for resting.

This washing fountain was built in the early years of the 18th century by the community of Schmitshausen and was used for around 200 years. The laundry, which was mainly made of linen, was dried on the "bleaching meadows" at the upper end of this valley below the path that leads past the current youth campsite.
