Forsbach Mill

Highlight • Restaurant

A visit to the beer garden at the Forsbach Mill is always worthwhile. It's in a very idyllic location. They have a nice little menu, delicious drinks, and on weekends they also offer herring and fish sandwiches.

Narrow Valley at Forsbach Mill

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Enchanting paths lead you through the Kurtenwaldbach valley near the Forsbach mill. It's hard to believe that the city is just a stone's throw away. Surrounded by dense forest, you always follow the babbling of the stream.
