Primitive Sulzbachtal Valleys and Hochfeld Show Mine

Together we will hike on snowshoes from the valley entrance to the Knappenstube, where we can warm up and strengthen ourselves with our own tea and a small snack before exploring the front area of the Hochfeld show mine. Equipped with protective clothing and helmets, we will enter the "Hieronymus Heritage Tunnel." The ranger will tell us about the lives of the former miners and mining.
