The origins of the Buchenmühle probably date back to the 16th century. Milling operations using water from the Taft River were discontinued in the early 1950s for economic reasons.

This part is a playful, highly recommendable alternative to the L road. Some curves are not clear enough, so do not rush - oncoming cyclists might surprise you.

Road surface is mediocre in places so be careful on your road bike. Also watch out for pedestrians. I prefer the path in the North direction as the surface impurities do not matter as much while ascending. Going South, still worth to include, just be careful :)
