It's particularly beautiful here at sunset. When the weather is right, many people make a pilgrimage there to marvel at the setting sun. On the slope above the path there …

December 2, 2023,Im Schnee zur Hornisgrinde ❄️

I finally wanted to try out my snowshoes and had actually put together a different route near the Badener Höhe. On the way there, I spontaneously decided to change and set my sights on Seibelseck, as I would rather go higher in the northern Black Forest for maximum amounts of snow (it doesn't get any higher than the H-Grinde).

A steep climb to the Hornisgrinde in humid weather. A constant thunderstorm rumbled above us; luckily, we arrived at the car just before the first drops of rain fell ;-)

Yesterday with my big 10km and today with my little son husband. Today I recorded the tour. It was pretty busy. Arrived at the Mummelsee up to the Hornisgrinde. Continue to the Drei Fürstenstein. Rounder to the Seibelseckle on rocky rock. That's how I love the paths. Back up to the Mummelsee. But today just too many people.

We started in the fog and he was very persistent. But again and again the fog gave us short but wonderful views. It was a great way and a strengthening stop in the Seibelseckle.

A nice round, but it has it all. It should not be run without sturdy shoes. This trip is also not suitable for those who prefer to travel alone.
We enjoyed the wonderful scenery and enjoyed the beautiful summer sunny weather.
Thanks for sharing this great hike
