The Freudenberg half-timbered trail offers a historical journey through time, starting in the idyllic little half-timbered town. The route leads through beautiful natural passages to an old smelting site and offers impressive views. A special highlight is the 400-metre-long tunnel passage.

The tunnel passage near Hohenhain is a particular highlight of the route. The Freudenberg half-timbered trail is a regional hiking trail that is culturally interesting and offers refreshment stops.
