Gnome's dwelling in the tree root 🌳

Highlight • Other

Small door on a tree root 🌳 on the path up to Weidelsburg ruin 🏰. Nice idea 💡 for children, but also for adults. 😁

Tree Spirits in the Roots

Highlight • Structure

The properties attributed to tree spirits vary from culture to culture. In many cases, however, there is the idea that trees and plants are animated by the tree spirits and thus come closer to the gods and humans.

March 2, 2025,Unter den Schwingen des Habichts 🦅 von Naumburg zur Weidelsburg 🏰

From Naumburg we hiked on the Habichtswald Extratour H8 via the Weingarten Chapel to Weidelsburg. We enjoyed the beautiful view in the historic walls and took a short break. On the way back we would have loved to stop at Café Hasenacker. Unfortunately it was hopelessly overcrowded, even in the garden all the tables were taken. So we quickly moved …

Wonderful extra tour from the Habichtswaldsteig. Great signage and path conditions. With plenty of rest and refreshment options. The highlight is the Wechselburg with a great view from the castle tower.

What spring weather!!! 🌞🌞🌞 Pretty windy but great air and sun, what more could you ask for?? Today we drove a little further, we went to northern Hesse in the Hessian mountains. It should be the Habichtswaldsteig. The description sounded great. And what can I say, we were not disappointed! Of course the dachshund was with us again, as promised! …

After a good 4 months, it was time to add something to the Eco Paths Collection. ☺️
The last stage on the Werra-Burgen-Steig was planned today before the time change and the winter break, but a major construction site on the Werra Valley Railway made that seem impractical to us. 🤷‍♂️
With better weather 🌥 than forecast, the Eco Path …

December 19, 2021,Habichtswaldsteig H8 "Im Tal der zwei Burgen"

Oh how beautiful it is here in the Habichtswald Nature Park!
I am completely enthusiastic about this extra tour as well. The tour leads from the small town of Naumburg, in which the castle only appears in its name, to Weidelsburg, the ruins of which, on the other hand, are quite well preserved. The route mostly runs along small paths …
