Goldeck - Gold Diggers on the Trail
The name Goldeck is associated with the local occurrence of the precious metal. Here we can follow the traces of the gold diggers and maybe we will see some of the golden precious metal, but our way also leads us to the Martennock, the mountain whose summit cross is visible from far away and which you have surely already discovered from the valley.
