December 21, 2021,Obernheim - Weihnachtswanderweg 🕯🎄🎁🎀und kleine Waldrunde zum Aussichtspunkt Harras🔭

We started today's hike from the Obernheim sports field. There are plenty of parking spaces here. The Christmas hiking trail in Obernheim is worth seeing and varied with various sculptures and art. Here you can see what you can make out of everyday objects (car tires, flower pots, etc.). Super👍. A short detour to the lookout point is also worthwhile.

Soak up the sun☀️ on the Swabian Alb ... The hike was really entertaining ... several stations enchant the forest with its Christmassy glow
Lights, balls, fabric stars, oversized Advent wreaths or a gingerbread crispy house. On the Christmas trail there are food stalls with mulled wine, punch, waffles ... ☀️😂
Thank you @Anja for the great idea ... 👍
