Durch den Hohlweg

The early trade route from the Middle Ages ("mouse path") is now a particularly beautiful section of the route as a sunken path or ravine. Several times along the way, trees or bushes close above your head, so that you feel like you are in a green fairway.
The mouse path was part of the medieval network of trails. It was an easy path for traders, which was kept clear by walking and cutting back the undergrowth. So not only beautiful, but also historically significant!

Here is the best preserved part of the mouse path with a ravine, which deserves greater attention as a centuries-old Bodendenkmal.

The Hohlweg, "Mauspfad" is an important old road of the Middle Ages.

only arsonists smoke in the forest. if you have a child, it is better to use a back carrier for hiking. As many have noticed, strollers are often impractical but do not have to be made for it. many do not even know how to behave properly in the forest because they are forced to discover new things due to corona but still do not appreciate or respect it.

The ravine to the Rotthäuserbachtal is always worth a detour. This applies in full sun, but also in the shade or in the early evening hours when it looks threatening, but somehow also captivates.

Great way, but not with a stroller

Again, in the winter muddy, about 500 m long.

He has to come through this hollow alley. Nice path, especially sheltered from the wind.

It's practically a narrow path. Like through a gutter.

Old ravine lined with gnarled trees with exposed roots. Just beautiful!

If you take the Schäpershof path, you get the feeling that you are walking in a Kule, which is overgrown on all sides.

Nice way, but better without a stroller

A path in the Kule overgrown on all sides.

He has to come through this hollow alley…. After the storms in July 2021, you have to be careful here, too, because parts of the path are badly undermined.

I feel transported back hundreds of years, it's like time travel!Listed as a hiking highlight, but can also be ridden by bike (MTB).

Nice and old ravine

A short path surrounded by trees and bushes.

Not recommended with the stroller 😊

Dormgen

Shortly before Gerresheim, but far enough away to smoke the perfect cigarette on the bench between the field and the forest!

Great, mystical hiking trail. There's no getting around it if you want to hike through the Bachtal!

A ravine that appears very shady even in broad daylight.
