April 25, 2024,Zwei auf einen Streich: Der Teufels😈 Pfad (abgeändert...)⛅️🚶🏼‍♀️🧙

The hiking boots were muddy anyway and the journey through the Hexenklamm is too far for a good 6 km. So we hitched up the devil 😈.
We started at the Naturfreundehaus Niedersimten, first up to Haspelfels, the path further to Hühnerfels is not passable, so we went back down to a very wide road, once again through the bushes …

A small round to the devil's rock which should actually lead to a cave. It is recommended for a quick little tour, but not nearly as much as we usually do. Feel free to watch the little video about it. We would be very happy if you visit our YouTube channel.
