October 8, 2023,Heiligenberger Panoramaweg 🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏻‍♂️

Today was departure from the holiday apartment. Before we went home again, we drove to Heiligenberg and went on the short loop of the Panoramaweg. There is also a longer loop, which is 13.6 km long (heilenberg.de/de/gaeste/freizeit-kultur/wandern-radfahr/wanderwege).
The “Friendship Caves” are not on the panoramic path, which runs parallel slightly above. We wanted to see this “highlight” and therefore took …

This hiking route combines idyllic paths through the charming high-altitude landscape of Heiligenberg with charming views of Lake Constance, the Linzgau, the Hegau, across the Black Forest to the Feldberg. And with really great views, the Alpine chain opens up to hikers from the Allgäu Alps far into the Swiss mountains.

A beautiful, winter-friendly tour around Heiligenberg with all the highlights: Friendship Caves with a gigantic view - escaped the fog today 👍🏼 -, Friedwald, which is barely noticeable, then a visit to the animals and the Lärchenhof farm shop. When you see the free-roaming chickens, buying eggs is almost a must every time🐓. We were accompanied by a very pretty …

I discovered a route up here a few days ago on @Christian and quickly added it to my Komoot account... and off I go! (Thanks @Christian) The fog, which was still gray and heavy over the lake, thins …

October 30, 2024,Heiligenberg - Nebel, Sonne, Schmetterlinge 30.10.24

By bus to Heiligenberg, where I was greeted by thick fog.
Then I walked the small panoramic loop. There was no visibility towards the sea today, but I was compensated by the many admirals that were hanging around pear trees. From Bellevue Square the fog slowly disappeared, then there was only a bright blue sky.
Then there was fog again …

September 22, 2024,Kleine Panoramarunde Heiligenberg mit Abstecher zum Segelflugplatz

We hiked around Heiligenberg in beautiful Indian summer/early autumn weather.
Over Bellevue Platz through the Friedwald towards Lärchenhof we noticed some large, beautiful model airplanes in the sky. We investigated and there were actually German championships taking place at the Heiligenberg gliding airfield.
Back to Lärchenhof, past the cemetery over the Amalienhöhe and through the lower Friedwald back to the …
