April 10, 2023,Ostermontag 2023 🪺🐇 Runde von Kayh mit Sommertalweiher und Grafenberg 550 m

🅿️ Jägergartenweg in Kayh. From there you are in 15 minutes at the great barbecue area Kayhertalwiesen. You can also bathe your feet there. Then it goes past ponds to the next barbecue area of the Gültsteiner Hütte. From there it goes steeply uphill to the Schönbuchtrauf. There are beautiful vantage points such as the Kaiserwirt's Bergle and the Grafenberg. …
