Stone Bridge in Gimmlitztal

Highlight • Bridge

Particularly after rainy weather, sturdy shoes are recommended (because they are muddy). Overall, it is a wonderful and varied path that always leads along the Grimmlitz and is therefore quite flat.

November 20, 2024,Spontane Wanderung 🥾🧭 Talsperre Lichtenberg – Talsperrenblick Runde von Frauenstein ❄️☀️🌬️

I started my hike in Frauenstein at 0 degrees and a heavy snowstorm. The path led me to the Lichtenberg dam, where the snow was sparse but the wintery atmosphere still came across well. The cold wind and the snow-covered trees made the hike really refreshing.
