Staufer-Runde: Barbarossas Spuren vor traumhafter Kulisse – Löwenpfade um Göppingen

Today end of the year hike Staufer Runde von den Löwen Pfade near Göppingen. I didn't like a lot of forest freeway, a lot of road, but beautiful nature and a wonderful view

Today I was out with friends on the Löwenpfade near Göppingen. I thought I already knew the most beautiful tours on the Albtrauf - far from it - and today the weather was great too. The Hohenstaufen and the Spielburg are simply fantastic places.

Sodele, today I have a free head to go for a spin in the new year. I left late because the sun was waiting ☀️. Since the Lion's Path isn't that long anyway, it was fine. It was good to walk as there was some snow on the ice. You just have to be careful at the play castle. The view from Hohenstaufen is always beautiful 😍, even if the foresight was missing today. The absolute highlight was the chance meeting on @Lexie and Hubert just before the parking lot. It's always nice to see you 😍 It's perfect that I didn't bring my schnapps with me for nothing 🙊

The Latin saying on the column... THE SUN OF THE WORLD THAT SHINES THE NATIONS HAS SET THE SUN OF JUSTICE HAS SET THE HOLD OF PEACE HAS SET

And this lion 🦁 path also impresses with many highlights. We left very late today because the fog in the Remstal was very thick again🙄 So it was time to go up again ☝️ and escape the fog. The hoarfrost, the powder snow❄️ with the blue sky conjured up a beautiful landscape around the Hohenstaufen⛰️ At the Spielburg we missed a path and we also had to reschedule towards Waschenbeuren because of a path closure (forestry work). We then met @Tine Ti at the Wascherhofschlösschen. That was soooo great. Your schnapps before the 🅿️ was just right to warm yourself up again. Dear Tine, always great to meet you spontaneously😘

This morning with a change to FN, by train to Göppingen, then by bus to Hohenstaufen. Since the "Staufer Runde", walked a tour of the lion paths. From Hohenstaufen we went up to the beautiful Spielburg nature reserve with a great view of the surrounding area. Continue to Wäschenbeuren and to the "Wäscherschlössle", then to Maitis and up to Staufen. Great views from there, including the Staufen’s neighbor, the Rechberg. After a rest, we went back down to the bus stop in Hohenstaufen with a nice descent. Despite some passages with tar roads a beautiful round that was fun.

Today, as the crowning 👑 conclusion, I did the Staufer round: Barbarossa's traces in front of a dreamlike backdrop - lion paths around Göppingen. With this last lion path 🦁 the collection is complete. The weather couldn't have been better today. Blue sky and sunshine 🌞 the 3D video of the tour is of course available again. https://www.relive.cc/view/vWqBZQVgwQq

This year I want to run all the lion trails, so today was another one... I decided on the Staufer circuit. Beginning of the month (people go shopping on Saturdays), not the best weather for nice-weather walkers, February... The signs were good for a crowd with few people. And that's exactly how it was🤩🤩🤩👍 I only met other people on the Hohenstaufen itself and the Spielburg, but only a few. I ran this LP over two years ago, with a little mishap. Today it went without any accidents and was super nice and relaxed 😁 Since I really like ending the day in a hotel after a nice tour, I rented a room at the Gasthof Wascherhof. The bathtub in the room convinced me 🤩😁
