The section between Hirzenhain and Steinberg leads you through the dense forests and across the lush green meadows of the region. Not only connected by a picturesque stretch of land, the history of both villages is closely intertwined. Steinberg owes its name to the iron ore mining that was once carried out here. The extracted ore was processed in the ironworks in Hirzenheim. It is hard to imagine how many people have already traveled these paths.
