This local hiking trail connects the ponds of Fischbach with the Al Schmelz geotope.
The trail first leads through the village of Fischbach. After a short climb, a viewpoint is reached, offering a fine view over the village. From there, the path continues past the Wasserhaff to the geotope Al Schmelz, a pond and the only visible remains of Fischbach’s former smelteries. At this spot, a smelter worker explains what the site looked like in the past.
The route then ascends through the forest via an old hollow path, before winding back down into the valley surrounded by rocks. A paved path leads to the Fischbach ponds, where a refreshment stop is available.
Another resting possibilty awaits after the next climb: a pavilion with a picnic bench and small pond invites hikers to pause. From there, the trail returns to the starting point.
