At Kaserbach, where hydroelectric power was once used, lies the former artisan zone that characterized village life back then. Our path leads past the smithy, the knitter mill and the old sawmill. At that time, the grain of the Lüsner farmers was ground in the mill. The "Stricker mill", whose historical roots reach back to the year 1645, has remained true to its original function until today.

The possibility to start the journey to Herol and the return from Schweiger Böden by our hiking bus makes this hike an ideal family excursion.

A very special hike on old communication ways from one old farm to the other. You walk eastward starting from the pond in the center of Lüsen passing the old Oberburger farm until the Niederst farm in the eastern end of Lüsen. For the return you can take the same way or go to the Autoservice Kaser and take the bus to Lüsen center.

This unusual house is situated amongst a quite standard new village architecture. It consists of two sections: one constructed from parts of a 300-year-old farmhouse in which the farmer's and architect's family have been living for centuries, and another new building that crouches under the large tree trunks. The idea to live under mounted tree trunks came to the architect when he was a child playing in the woods, and he subsequently made it a reality. The stacked, untreated tree trunks do not hide a dingy living space beneath, but rather glass walls and openings that create an artful play of light when inside. In addition many other materials were used, from rough concrete mixed with glass shards to the extremely shiny stainless steel kitchen. A highly imaginative design here from the architect.
