At the corner of Langes Tal and Mühltal, opposite the Schössersmühle, there is a bench with a stone "table" in front of it. The watercourse from the Long Valley flows past in front of your nose.

The Amtsschreibermühle is the third mill coming from Kursdorf. It consists of a large manorial house, which is not surrounded by forest like the other mills. A wide, large area of grass extends in front of this mill.

Sommerfrischeweg Forest Path

Highlight • Trail

The Sommerfrischeweg is a nice alternative to the paved Mühlweg. Although there is more up and down here, you walk on forest floor and are not disturbed by cars.

An entertaining hiking tour on the edge of Eisenberg. It goes along partially modernized mills. Some of the mills offer catering facilities.

Around 1900 there were 10 mills in the Eisenberg Mill Valley, most of which can still be seen, even if you can hardly guess what their original character was. Some have seen better days, others have been preserved by providing catering.
In any case, the hike is very beautiful and recommended.

Very nice round trip along the Mühltal. You either walk the paths or the streets. But always nice in the green. Between the mills you can also switch between path and road, so a variety of surfaces is possible. Some mills are managed. At the parish mill, for example, there are delicious trout and smoked meats.

March 19, 2022,Auf dem Weg zur 49. EISENBERGER Mühltallauf

Yesterday we were at the 49th EISENBERGER Mühltallauf. Past the Robertsmühle, the Schössersmühle, the Amtsschreibermühle, the Walkmühle and Pfarrmühle to the Froschmühle 🐸 This is where the runners of the EISENBERGER Mühltallauf started in both directions. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️ Otherwise I only know the Mühltal in winter with light and mulled wine 😁

March 16, 2024,Wanderung im Mühltal ab Kursdorf 🚶‍♀️🚶mit Miniaturmühlenpark

Very nice tour through the Mühltal in Thuringia. Asphalted path along the Mühlentalbach with 8 mills and plenty of restaurants. Pfarrmühle with a good lunch 🐟 and the Robertsmühle with home-baked cakes 🍰. A small but nice visit to the miniature mill park. Unfortunately, Komoot went crazy again during our breaks, which was annoying. Tour starts in private parking lot …
