    Tips

    Unfortunately, a hike over the Taubenberg is no longer recommended. The recently re-established nature trail can no longer be used in many places. The hiking trails have been destroyed by forestry machinery and have become impassable due to wind damage and weed growth. It's a shame about this holiday region.
