geography

The Teufelsgrund begins immediately below Frohnbügel and continues in the direction of the Teufelsmühle , including the lower valley of the Omersbach and Falkenbach . The end of the Teufelsgrund is in Hüttelngesäß , where the Geiselbach reaches the Kahltal on state road 2305 .

The Hessian peaks of Heidkopf (371 m) and Schanzenkopf (365 m) in the Sölzert stretch on the steep right side of the slope . The Geiselbach feeds a few ponds from the mouth of the Omersbach . These were created a few years ago for fish farming, but had to be left to nature because of over- vegetation caused by strong algae development in the water.


Buildings

The remains of the legendary Teufelsmühle , one of three former mills in the lower Omersbachtal, are located near the confluence of the Omersbach and Geiselbach . On the left on the slopes of the Teufelsgrund, the last remains of the Rothenberger Hof were located until the mid-1990s . These were removed as part of a forest path renewal.
