Hiking

If you are lucky, Franz will stand in front of his cottage and invite you to stop by. In addition to the physical well - for me it was a "Hüchler-Kaffi", as he called it (coffee with cherries;)) Franz also cares for the spiritual well-being of the pilgrims. His charisma, his words are a blessing and soul anew after the rigorous ascent to the Laad.
