Ascent to Klingelfloß Shelter

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Hut

This is the steepest part of the dream ring Klingelfloß and leads along a stream along quite steeply up to the refuge Klingelfloß. The path is well worn and some places require good footwear or at least patience.

Klosterkumbd Fish Ponds

Highlight • Lake

In the fall of 2019, the dilapidated connections (wooden overflows) were replaced by short streams fastened with quarry stones. The bottom pond has now been fortified and now contains enough water.

With today's full moon and a clear sky, we went on a night tour to the bell raft. I did that a good year ago, but at that time with the SLR and an even clearer sky

Unfortunately the iPhone pictures aren't that convincing, but it was worth a try ;o)

June 25, 2022,Hochsteinchen war der Plan, Klingelfloß wurde es.

Hochsteinchen was announced, but the closer I got, the less I saw because dense fog made it disappear. I didn't have that on my radar right now. But thanks to Hunsbuckel, I spontaneously thought of the keyword bee pasture and off I went to the dream loop ring raft. It's always nice there. Photographically, I escalated a bit.

This tour can easily be combined with a visit to the Gaierlay Bridge. Our Landidyllhotel partner Birkenhof is about a 15-minute drive from the Gaierlay.

A good day for my home circuit, the Klingelfloß dream loop, which tends to be a muddy track in autumn, winter and spring.
But today almost everything was frozen solid and only occasionally did the slipperiness lead to involuntary drifting of the feet and wild flailing of the arms.

Compared to yesterday's hike, today's was quite a contrast. To be honest, I'm not entirely clear on the distinction between the Klingelfloß Dream Loop and the smaller Dream Loops. Up until now, I've understood Dream Loops to be more like leisurely strolls. Dream Loops, as hiking trails, should be clearly differentiated from the smaller Dream Loops in terms of difficulty. …
