From 2017 to 2020, the historic mining trail (small route) was modernized and expanded with a large route featuring mining historical landmarks and beautiful views. The large route is expected to be fully signposted from October 2020.

The route starts at the entrance of the "Geyerin" pit above the Seiffen mountain church. An orientation board installed here explains the course of the mining trail routes through the former mining area of Seiffen with its 34 stations. At each station, there are signs in the form of a German doorstop with detailed descriptions of the respective locations.
