Waldgeisterweg Oberotterbach

Funny wooden figures along the way. Not just fun for kids.

Friendly service and delicious food, but also good enough the normal portion

Nice circular route for the whole family, visit carvings made from roots and tree trunks ...

Incidentally, the figures are by Volker Dahl.

From here there are plenty of hand-carved forest spirits

There is much to discover for children!

Beautifully designed path.
Beautifully carved figures.

The forest path meets the whole path

Entertaining hiking trail for the whole family. On the roadside is always something nice or funny to discover.

The Waldgeisterweg is a good 2 km long wide path in the Otterbach valley.
On every corner is a new great, funny and / or bizarre wood carving artwork.It is the life's work of Volker Dahl from Oberotterbach, who made the forest ghost figures on a voluntary basis from trunks along the way in an infinite number of hours.
Thank you very much for this great work.
I hope that they will be preserved for a very long time.The artist also has a small gallery in Oberotterbach with smaller works to look at or buy.Since I am an absolute fan of his works of art, I indulged myself in 2013 "Den Durchblicker".

Recommended for a short easy hike with children

Beautifully designed path.
Beautiful figures

Entertaining way, there is always something to discover. Suitable for the whole family and for all family members of all ages.

Very tasty schnitzel, tarte flambée and salads.

Since you have to look very carefully to discover all.

I think you can eat here very well. Very nice and attentive service

At the second visit new, lovingly designed spirits were there. Nice that the way is designed so great.

Partly funny and partly scary characters.

Very nice way, easy to walk, ideal with children

Food was and is still very good. Really highly recommended.

Ideal for children, easy way

Beautiful forest spirits along the way

A compliment to Volker Dahl, the hobby carver from Oberotterbach, who has created such a sight with over 100 works for young and old.
A work of art "Der Durchblicker" adorns our garage wall.
