Hikers walk on the pipes that carry water to the power plant. On the trail along the right bank of the Selbitz River, you walk on 1.60-meter-high pipes, which carry water for 1,855 meters from the weir to the water tower and from there to the power plant. Sometimes the surface of the pipes peeks through.

A wonderful old church. If you have the opportunity to take a guided tour, definitely take it!

We were here for the medieval festival. Small, quaint, and still worth a visit. The small campsite next door is ideal.
