Tips from the Community
The Zinsbachmühle is a historic, former grain mill in the idyllic Zinsbachtal in the Northern Black Forest, whose origin at the present location dates back to 1555.

The Kohlsägmühle is already more than 400 years old. It was first mentioned in writing in 1614, located in the Zinsbachtal valley and named after the small stream Kohlbächlein. This date is mentioned in both the Altensteiger Forstlagerbuch and the Dorfbuch of Garrweiler, in whose district the mill stands. From the beginning, it was owned by several forest farmers. Today it belongs to more than 40 co-owners from Garrweiler, Spielberg and Überberg, Grömbach, Wörnersberg and Edelweiler - it is the only mill in the district with such an ownership structure.

Absolute premium viewpoint over the timber-framed village of Reichental and the Murgtal valley, as well as Baden's local mountains. Especially worthwhile at sunset. However, it is also quite crowded because you can drive directly to it and park. In winter, when the snow tourists are out, there can sometimes be scuffles for the last parking space lol. In summer, there is a motorcycle meet here daily from noon until late at night. Many behave correctly - also towards cyclists - and because I am there very often, you already know one or two people you can have a nice chat with. Unfortunately, some testosterone-driven clowns with prepubescent cerebral cortex completely overdo it and accelerate full throttle again or even do wheelies to impress each other. Similar game with those who rent a sports car over the weekend and want to test the acceleration from 100 to 200 here again, without ever having completed a sporty/race-oriented driving safety training, but at best have "practiced" on Need for Speed on the PlayStation with a controller. This is not only incredibly unpleasant, but also extremely dangerous. Coming from the Enztal, when turning left into the parking lot, it is better to make sure 5 times that no one is coming. I never stay here long because of the sometimes aggressive atmosphere, even though a lounger would invite you to linger.

A worthwhile stopover for the view

The Bömbachsee near Altensteig-Spielberg is idyllically situated, surrounded by forests in the middle of the countryside, and invites you to swim. The small lake is easily accessible via the Ziegelweg, and parking is available. A large sunbathing lawn with shady trees adjoins the eastern shore.

In some pictures, a small wooden hut can be seen. Unfortunately, it burned down. Maybe a new one will be built; that would be nice.

MAGNIFICENT FOREST LANDSCAPE OVER THE NOW BLOOMING SCATTERED ORCHARDS

The elevation information has since disappeared from the sign. At 933 meters, it is the highest Black Forest pass north of the Murg River. The Murg side is significantly steeper and has a higher elevation gain than the Enz side. Coming from Reichental, the climb is also nicknamed the "Kaltenbronner Wand," reflecting its challenging nature.
