really a beautiful spot!
I was already impressed by the crossing from Hetzles, great path!
But as already mentioned, be careful when descending, it can end really badly...
To be honest, I wouldn't have recognized the chapel as such without the cross. It's quite an unusual construction in my opinion

The route from Hetzlas to Effeltrich is completely car-free, well paved and very promising. But be careful: in the descent at the entrance to Effeltrich just before the Schmidtlein tree nursery, there are three nasty racing bike traps: cross gutters with a hard step that are easy to miss. The associated warning sign to the left of the street is overgrown with bushes.
