The Harzbornhaus is no longer a highlight, as it is permanently closed. Looters have already been at work on one building. However, the parking lot by the house is a good starting point for hikes.

The Naturfreundehaus “Harzbornhaus” is a nice starting point for hikes. The lush nature begins right behind the house. A rustic gorge of the desert Aschbach begins here.

If this house has a tenant again, it is an ideal resting place on a longer tour around Zweibrücken.

The PWV hut managed by the Thaleischweiler-Fröschen local association is located directly on the Steinenschlossweg, which at six kilometers is a pleasant short tour to the nearby ruins of the Steinenschloss. The hut can serve as a starting and ending point, so that after the hike on the circular route you can stop for a bite to eat. Unfortunately it was closed on Pentecost Sunday 2023 https://www.tourenplaner-rheinland-pfalz.de/de/huette/pwv-huette-am-grieswald/21461686/
