Premium hiking trail in the high forests from the Losheim reservoir. Very nice with family and dog.🐶

The Hochwald is one of the dream loops of the Saar-Hunsrück Steig, starting and finishing at the Losheim reservoir. The various landscape forms of lake scenery, romantic reed banks, lively streams, open meadows and high forests over 10 km, hiking pleasure of exquisite quality. At the end another nice "paddling tour"

Got up today, nice weather 🌞, spontaneously decided to go hiking 😁👍

Today it should be "The High Forest". 🎒

We started at the Losheim Tourist Info parking lot. Across beautiful meadows, along soothing watercourses through sections of forest. Beautiful route with mostly nature. There are enough benches to rest.

Was fun in the weather and is recommended. 👍👍👍👍👍

Dream loop of the high forests

Dog lap on the dream loop "Der Hochwälder". The dream loop is a bit overrated with 76 points. For an easy afternoon loop, however, it is good to go.

The Hochwälder dream loop was certified in 2010 by the German Hiking Institute as a premium hiking trail with 76 adventure points.

Should be a comfortable conclusion, since the parking fees, after 2 hours, only have day, I had hurried a bit. Too bad actually.

But otherwise quite nice 👌

The "Hochwalder" is one of the "Traumschleifen Saar-Hunsrück", which largely runs parallel to the "Stausee-Tafeltour", the Saar-Hunsrück-Steig and the "Bergener". Characteristic of the "high forest" are varied forest passages with beautiful clearings, as well as idyllic stream valleys.
The ten-kilometer trail can be walked all year round and is particularly suitable for families. It can be classified as easy, as …

... Finishing at the lake.

Today we changed our plans at short notice and decided on this TS in search of a path that was as shady as possible and perhaps even longer to stay at the lake.

It worked.

Lots of shade and yet, having hiked from 8:30 a.m., it was already more than warm enough for today's temperatures.
