Buchen is a small village beautifully situated on the right side of the Eriz valley (looking back into the valley) with a church but unfortunately no restaurant. This side of the Eriz is wild and romantic and it is definitely worth hiking or visiting it by e-bike... e-bike because it goes up and down in a colorful and varied way. There are no major roads on this side and so there is only minimal local traffic... where else can you find that!

This is truly a beautiful region.

I can only agree with Roland, the fresh air addict.

Have fun, everyone.
