    Mountain biking

    Mining of red iron stone from 1829 - 1948.
    The buildings are all empty, the former works bridge, built in 1918, is currently used as a cycle path across the Lahn.

    Mountain biking

    The bike path leads along here. On the bridge gets tight when two cyclists meet.

    Hiking

    The Buchwald pit was an ore mine that was operated in 1829 by the Krupp company from Essen as an underground mine.
    The former half-timbered houses are poorly preserved.
    There was an ore processing hall, a metalworking shop, a carpenter's workshop and an ore washing plant.
