Old Mine Spoil Heaps in the Gelbach Valley (Weinähr)

Highlight • Structure

The reason for this vegetation-free rubble heap is interesting and revealing:
Lead and silver, among other things, were mined here. The waste is not beneficial to most plants due to the heavy metal contamination.

Lahnwanderweg Difficult Section

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

What fun it is to do the difficult version on narrow stone paths. Absolutely recommended, as well as good shoes, surefootedness and possibly gloves, which make it much easier to grip an older steel cable.
