Hiking
One of the oldest bridge structures in the region leads over the Göltzsch. A Reichstrasse and Army Road, which connected Reichenbach with Plauen, formerly ran over the so-called Egersche Bridge. For information, the Egerschen Bridge was built for the last time in 1799 and bridge tolls were probably levied afterwards. In the 1980s a modern concrete bridge was built upstream, over which road traffic has been running ever since. After the flood in 2013, the Egersche Bridge can no longer be used for pedestrians. Plans for the restoration of the valuable cultural monument are in the making.

Immediately next to the bridge was the boiling hut of the alum plant, later an inn. The road that rises steeply in front of it is also known as the Mühlwand and was still a dangerous steep section up to the 19th century.
