Glockenstein (HWN 73)

Highlight • Natural Monument

A really beautiful stone, which unfortunately stands there rather bleak. He was left with just one tree. It will take a while until he is in a forest again!

April 7, 2024,2024..7.Tour - Sommerrodelbahn – Glockenstein (HWN 73) Runde von Thale

Hello, today we finally went to Hexentanz Platz to get my 2 stamps there.
The first tour is finished, we started with the cable car from Thale and then a very nice wide path... great weather and we didn't meet anyone while hiking 😉👌😁.
