Directions

The GeoPfad Korbach is a circular route of about 20 km in length, connecting the Korbacher Spalte with the Eisenberg near Goldhausen. The Eisenberg is Germany's largest gold deposit and features a visitor mine and the Goldspur educational trail. The trail mainly follows field and forest paths, with narrow nature trails in the "Schanzenberg" nature reserve (please stay on the designated paths). Note that the route may not be suitable for cyclists in all sections.For the exact route of the GeoPfad and explanations of the individual stopping points, you can refer to a companion brochure. It is available at the Korbach Tourist Information (Tel. 05631/53 232, www.hansestadt-korbach.de) and the Wolfgang-Bonhage-MUSEUM KORBACH (Tel. 05631/53 289, www.museum-korbach.de).
