Rocks from all over the world are exhibited on the geology trail Tännesberg. On boards you can inform yourself about the origin and the composition. A special highlight is a large granite rock, in which a letterbox is installed.

The place Wildstein with castle ruins is a nice destination for the whole family. From the parking lot you have a nice paved footpath to the ruins, at the top with a wonderful beautiful view of the surrounding area.

With the best hiking weather, we went to Oberviechtach today. A relaxed hike of a good 20 km with a summit cross on the way. At the end of the day I stay at Pension Weigl. There is no dinner here, but excellent 🍰

From Tännesberg we started the tour this morning on the geological nature trail. Unfortunately, there were no information boards on the many types of rock that can …

The weather app had lied and so we went through fog. Unfortunately, there were no great views. The geological trail is superbly laid out. The tour goes through forests and past small towns.
