Montan Lehrpfad Arzberg

The trail is marked throughout with "Montanlehrpfad" signs.

• We start at the overview board at the starting point, cross the bridge over the Raab and turn north on the road.
• Now we can already see the first display boards.
• We walk along the Raab river, past the powder tower, galleries, mine dumps, ore processing plant and workers' dwellings to the crossroads at the "Grillwirt".
• We cross the Raab, directly opposite the inn building was the so-called "Grillstollen". A historical photograph refers to the earlier times.
• The nature trail now turns towards the south and passes just past the former workers' housing.
• We now hike uphill in the beautiful mixed forest to the romantic pigeon fountain.
• After a climb, we reach the "Havok" farmstead and thus the highest point of the hike.
• Just past the buildings, then along the edge of the meadow, we go downhill on a beautiful forest path.
• At a clearing near a logging site, we have a great view of the Röthelstein, the Rote Wand with the Tyrnaueralm, the Hochlantsch and the Osser through the "Almenland window".
• We continue downhill on a forest path. The Montanlehrpfad runs along the Arzberg Kreuzweg for a while and ends at the Heimatmuseum/GH Kirchewirt next to the Arzberg church.

This hiking trail, which is not too long, can be combined with a visit to the exhibition mine or a guided tour of the Almenland cheese tunnel.
