September 25, 2023,Panoramarunde auf den Belchen (von Jägerstüble)

Many say that the Belchen is the most beautiful mountain in the Black Forest. And after today's tour, I completely agree! Even though the Belchen is only the third highest peak in the Black Forest, it offers an absolutely fantastic 360 degree panorama with views of the Wiesental, Münstertal, the Feldberg and Kandel, the Jura and the Rhine plain and …

That was a great day ... The Belchen is really the nicer mountain in relation to the Feldberg ... The view was semi, because of the haze and the high humidity ... But the alpine climb R2 around the Belchen was very strong 😍👌❤️ ... mega, mega ... absolutely do it !!! On the way back I took the path …

Great circular run in beautiful weather... first a small descent and then it goes up with the blue hiking sign through a beautiful pine forest and an alpine pasture... great green landscape and not so many tourists around... great but steep climb. At the end you are rewarded with a great view of the Belchen and get off at the …

Great, relaxed tour with great vantage points on a clear day. You should start the tour no later than 10:00 a.m., then you are relatively alone on the road. Surefootedness is required with us there were also a few trees across, so all muscles were trained 😉🌞

July 29, 2024,Belchenbahn Parkplatz - Böllener Eck - Hohfelsen - Belchen

Today I went hiking with my dad. He wanted to go up the Belchen, so no sooner said than done. We walked a little downhill on wide forest paths until we reached Böllener Eck. Then the strenuous but beautiful part begins with narrow paths that wind up the mountain. At the Belchenhaus we chose the circular route over the summit. …

The nice weather is back and we can "tackle" the Belchen! The Belchenbahn valley station offers plenty of free parking spaces and is an ideal starting point. However, there is already a lot of people on site and we don't really want to run in the herd. That doesn't happen either, because you either take the path below the Belchenbahn …
