Schessels Beersche - the "Bowl Brünnchen" gives the loop into the Baybach valley from Thörlingen its name.

There is even a designated hiking car park, but today I was able to use the only parking space at the church because I had the route to myself.

Recommended! Loop with a length of 5.5 km. Very varied. Demanding ascents and descents. Hiking sticks useful. Very well signposted. Lots of places to rest.
