This trail truly deserves its name. I feel happy on every hike, but today's tour offers an extra dose of magnificent views and impressions. And the Brunnental valley in Grünberg is a place of happiness anyway.

Today again with the OHGV LONDORF and many nice hiking friends.
In the Brunnental we took part in a very informative tour of the Grünberger water supply. Highly recommended.
Despite the high temperatures, it was a beautiful and successful hike. Finished at the Bistro Schirn.
The conclusion of the hike.
All participants were happy on the Grünberger Glücksweg.
Thank you …

Nice little short loop trail. A few nice places to sit that invite you to rest. Beautiful views included.

Am I happier now? No idea. But it was just the thing for us today.

The Brunnental is always totally beautiful... Only the psycho 🦢 scares me. Either he's totally wuschig or a misogynist and follows me every time. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂
