Forest Lounging Meadow (Goldene-Kugel-Hütte)

Highlight • Forest

2022: The hut was demolished. A new one should be created. The sunbathing lawn with benches and fountain is also worth a detour.

Grandfather Fir

Very impressive, even if the trunk is now closed by a fence so that the roots are protected. Can be nicely combined with the "Alte Tannen" premium trail from Freudenstadt. …

Very nice hike. With a detour to the sunny meadow and to the grandfather fir. The grandfather fir is a very impressive tree. I find the Lauschapp very nice. Download before you start. Very informative audio posts

We went out to catch the sunshine...
At the start of the tour we found out what Teucheln are.
We slept in long enough to have tea and cake in the forest café.
We definitely decided on cake and what an incredible cake this apricot cheese is.
The Black Forest cheese is not bad but we bought it.
By the …

Inspired and based on the certified premium hiking trail "Tannenriesen Freudenstadt". Official information about the trail:

Since persistent rain was announced for my third day in the Black Forest (Wednesday), I decided to do a shorter tour from Freudenstadt. Since it was dry in the morning despite all the forecasts, I spontaneously went for a stroll through Freudenstadt and …

Did a leisurely hike near Freudenstadt today. Take the Rosenweg up to the Herzog Friedrich Turm and enjoy the beautiful view from above. From there it quickly went into the city forest, past many carvings, rest areas and large fir trees again and again. Shortly before our highlight, the grandfather fir, it went uphill again. And then we found the …

Today I went hiking near Freudenstadt!! A beautiful path, but the signage left a lot to be desired!! We are used to a different level in Saarland!! You could see people walking around with their cell phones everywhere so as not to lose their bearings! 🤣🤣 Otherwise a path that almost only leads through the forest! I liked it, in …

A short thunderstorm couldn't stop us, luckily there are numerous shelters along the circular route. The huge silver firs are a sensation, but my highlight was the Baldenhofergraben. You do need to be sure-footed though. With the lichen and moss on the trees, it's like being in a magical tropical forest.

May 31, 2022,Die Geschichte von Freudenstadt mit Tannenriesen und Baldenhofer Graben

By bus to Freudenstadt in 10 minutes from Baiersbronn. There I had planned a round based on Andi's template, which largely follows the "Tannenriesenweg". The experience can be divided into three main parts:

1) The history of the city of Freudenstadt:
A conversation with the supervisor in the town church at the end of the round gave me details about …

I saw this tour on @Scout Jens less than a week ago and immediately commented that I really like it.

And already on Whit Monday it was time. Many thanks again to Jens for this great experience, which I might not have discovered for myself so quickly without him.
