Schorsch's Panoramic Hut at the Blockhaus

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Great view with a good view of the Siebengebirge, nice seating to relax during a tour. I've hiked there countless times and enjoy the sight every time. Simply great, I can only recommend it.

August 13, 2022,Fernblick zwischen Hexentanz und Ballebäuschen (Reichshof) – Wandern mit Genuss im Bergischen Land

Need to catch up 🥾🥾?!?? When considering whether to go to the swimming pool or the gym, I spontaneously and surprisingly decided to include a second hike in the weekend program 🙂.

I chose the starting point at the log cabin near the town of Eckenhagen in the municipality of Reichshof. An outstanding view is promised on the heights of …

Nice tour with a few steep climbs...great views. On the way you will meet deer in the forest, Hennes 🐐 & Co. Refreshments (in the middle) "Ballebäuschen" if it's open or at the end of the tour in the "Blockhaus" from there you have - in clear weather - a view of the Siebengebirge.
However, there are also enough resting …

A beautiful hike. Currently, tons of blackberries are ripe and delicious along the trail. 😋 A nice place to take a break is the bench on the golf course, which is accessible from the hiking trail. The view from the Panorama Hut is a delight, and they also bake delicious waffles.

The start of this tour was in the car park 🚗 on Hustener Straße north of Hespert 🏘️.

And I immediately found myself on a section of the Bergischer Panoramasteig, more precisely the 8th stage from Bergneustadt 🏘️ to Wildbergerhütte 🏘️. However, I was travelling in the opposite direction and was able to enjoy the view 👁️ of the country …

In Reichshof and the surrounding area you can also see that the snow is disappearing. But just look at the pictures. It's definitely enough for a tour through the Winter Wonderland Reichshof Blockhaus and the surrounding area. And here and there people are still busy sledding 🛷
