Trail Reviews
After this path was planned for last year, we finally made it. ☺️ Very nice path that is still very muddy in places. But shouldn't put you off. 👍🏼
Started early, so I had to stop briefly in front of the Lorch monastery on the way to Welzheim am Limes. The first 4 pictures were taken here. The Feenweg certainly known to many. He speaks for himself.🥰 Don't you know the Feenweg yet? ...yes then, one mystically bizarre highlight follows the other, at least. A premium hiking trail in a class!
Today my youngest son accompanied me on the round, for the first time... I really wanted to show him this beautiful tour and let him participate in this pleasure... A complete success 🤩👍 We deliberately walked the loop the "wrong way around" to go down the Schmalenberg instead of up it. Komoot disagreed and was muted 😅 Since this tour is of course very well signposted, the path can only be missed at one point 😅 My absolute favorite is the Stümpelbachtal, fantastically beautiful 👍😇 Only the small ones are missing 🧚🧚🧚
It was so beautiful 😍....... the paths, the bridges, the forest, the water. We saw the hike at Komootlerin Heike. Thanks for sharing 😊. Shoes 🥾 stayed clean, just dusty. Paths were dry, except for a few muddy spots that were easy to overcome 😅.
In wet weather, good shoes are definitely necessary. But still a great hike. Towards the end, komoot gave up for a moment, hence the straight piece 🫣
Repeat act, only this time rolled up the tour from behind. The weather gods were kind to us too. Only the last kilometer we had to walk in the rain. The mud holes were there again. But they are just part of the group...... Thank you @Heike 📷🦋🥾🪻 for the nice day.
One of the most beautiful hikes in the Welzheim Forest. Magnificent gorges (be careful when it's wet!!) and beautiful forest paths.
Today we had our family hiking day 💓 There were my daughter and her boyfriend, my older son and my dear ex-husband 🤩 A wonderful day, everything was perfect 👍☀️ Plus my absolute favorite tour.... PERFECT 👍😍
