June 27, 2021,Von Schiltach durch die Altstadt zur Burgruine Schiltach, weiter über Wald- und Wiesenwege bis zur Schenkenburg und weiter am Fluss entlang zurück nach Schiltach

What a nice round, quite apart from the fact that the recorded Hm are not correct. The starting point is also the destination point and so it was only around 470 m.
First it went on cobbled streets through the picturesque old town of Schiltach, past the town hall, always uphill through narrow streets and alleys. Shortly before we left …

Arriving by train, changing in Radolfzell and Hausach to Schiltach.
From the train station, through the rafting town of Schiltach with its indescribably beautiful half-timbered houses. Then uphill to the Schlossberg where you can see a few remains of the walls of Schiltach Castle and some beautiful views of Schiltach and the surrounding area.
Continue uphill through meadows and forests …

This hike ideally combines history and beautiful nature. The castle ruins of Schenkenburg, Schiltach and the Schlossberg are historical highlights. You have to bring a little more time to process everything. On the other hand, the hike through the beautiful nature in the Kinzig valley is another pleasure. Moderately difficult with a few steep paths.
