Großes und kleines Wiesental

Thanks to all the rainfall in recent weeks, the Eichener See is currently nicely filled and of course well attended. This morning it was still okay, at a later time the parking lot is regularly overcrowded, so I always start right at the Schopheim train station. After the lake you can really let off… read more

There are some nice circular routes signposted in the small Wiesental, which are always suitable for a Sunday tour away from the hustle and bustle of the hotspots.

In view of the good visibility, the Panoramaweg Ried was on the program today - a little over 10km long round on uncomplicated paths with… read more

After yesterday's surprise with the old snow on the summit tour, I stayed in lower regions today. I wanted to go to the "Schöne Aussicht" in Hägelberg for a long time because of the mentions here (Tom, thank you for the tip🤗), and a small takeaway at Café Hygge is also motivating ...

I started at Kreiterhof… read more

Especially for a cloudy day like today I had planned a round at Maulburg for a long time - actually only under the motto "get your butt up and remove a blank spot on my personal map".

In the end, the tour surprised me very positively: after starting at the Wiesenbrücke hiking car park and looking into… read more

Actually, I had expected less snow after this thaw week, but there was still a lot left (and since yesterday even new things were added).

From the start at the Zell train station up to the Kalvarienkapelle, the snow cover was still relatively thin, but as a result, winter wonderland was quickly back in… read more

For the Sunday tours I like to choose less known and frequented areas, including a pretty quiet corner in the small meadow valley today.

In terms of loneliness, I was really served this time: I didn't meet a soul on the 12km from Bürchau to the Zeller Blauen😅.

After starting at the Kastelhöfen, it goes… read more

The Köhlgarten is one of the lesser-known Black Forest peaks, especially from Lipple you are mostly alone here on weekends. This seems to be wanted to a certain extent, so that the relatively numerous capercaillie have rest here - practically no signage and even on the OSM (and thus also in komoot) complete… read more

The cool idea with Höll- and Heißbachschlucht comes from hiking friend Marko (many thanks for the suggestion🤗) ... the idea to spice up the good old village cleaning comes to us from the Allgäu.

The campaign in the Black Forest runs until tomorrow, information for last-minute travelers: plasticfreepeaks.com/schwarzwald… read more

Anyone who does not yet know the Hirschen in Schillighof is warmly recommended to visit this rustic restaurant soon - but be careful, the company holidays are always in November!

In terms of hiking, the corner is not the absolute highlight, but it is definitely enough for a leisurely alibi round before… read more

Today's tour was actually just an excuse to finally test the café in Villa 19hundred02 in Brombach (and avoid the Father's Day hordes...) - mission accomplished 😊

So the start was on Lörracher Strasse in Brombach, from where you can quickly reach the Grüttpark. The rose garden there is currently in full… read more

Today's round I put together from two tours: the jungle path from Schönau and the snail's head circular hike that starts at the Holzer Kreuz.

The jungle path is around 5.5 km long when it starts at Schönau Town Hall, I started at Villersexel-Platz at the former train station. The actual forest circuit… read more

Today's weather forecast was not necessarily an invitation for the altitude, so I preferred to let off steam on the (high) Rhine. Mostly asphalt and wide roads, of course, but Rheinfelden (CH) in particular is always worth a visit. Parking at the Karsau forest cemetery is very easy, and with a return… read more

Actually, this should be the official Hörnle tour from Raich, but with the tours in the Kleines Wiesental it is often such a thing: Tracks are not available, signage is sometimes incomplete and after 15 years of GPS use I am simply too stupid to give directions 🤪

So I gave up the search shortly after… read more

The start of this mushroom photo safari in glorious autumn weather is the Baselmatt hiking car park, shortly after the small road forks up to Sallneck.

After just a few meters you are at the entrance to the Heissbach Gorge, the most spectacular section of the tour: a steep path and mossy steps lead up… read more

I had seen this tour at @Sarah and @Thomas Müller some time ago and have been on the list ever since - today it finally fit...

The start is at the train station in Zell / Wiesental, past the church the Blauener Weg climbs up to the outskirts of the village, which is short and extremely steep.

After a hairpin… read more
