May 2, 2025,Hinkelsteinweg komplett (gegen den Uhrzeigersinn)

In bright sunshine (and 28°C at midday on May 2, 2025), we walked the entire Hinkelsteinweg trail today. It's mostly characterized by a lovely, cool forest and beautiful views.

After the Mehlinger Heide, it was quite noisy along the highway, and the lack of trees made it less pleasant.

The "youngsters"😂 were out and about again. This time on the "Hinkelsteinrunde" (???).
Didn't see a menhir.😪
Probably missed in the rush of speed. Still a nice round trip, in an area that you only really get to if you happen to have relatives there. 🤣🤣🤣
