A really nice circular hike that I will definitely do again when it has snowed a little more. Some asphalt and gravel paths were somewhat hidden under the - albeit somewhat sparse - white splendor and you hardly noticed that it was actually an asphalt path. It is amazing that the path often went through forest areas. So we were …

The friendship path, launched in 2019, connects the two districts of Neunkirchen and Seelscheid. The path leads over wide forest paths, farm roads, roads with little traffic and now and then over narrow paths. It was another nice day of hiking 🙂

Finally off again 🙂🙃
In 1969, the towns of Neunkirchen and Seelscheid were merged as part of a municipal reform. The Friendship Trail was launched in 2019 to mark the 50th anniversary of the municipality. It's intended to underscore the shared bond between the two districts (there's even a dedicated flyer). A great idea and a beautiful trail through forests …
