1.5 km away from Stolzembourg are the remains of the former copper mine. For more than 500 years, the copper-bearing veins of the "Klangbaach" have attracted several investors to Stolzembourg, although it is far from any industrial district.

Unfortunately, this AP is not recommended. Pretty boring. Only the copper mine is a highlight. The first part is doable (uphill). Second part was terrible (downhill). Lots of fallen trees, lots of grass paths so you can't see the boulders, my foot sprained many times. Also many muddy paths. At the end you walk another 300 meters along a busy …
