After a violent sinus inflammation with a slight flu infection since last Sunday I've been feeling better that a little hike was feasible 😊🍂 I really enjoyed this tour.

February 27, 2022,Viele Spuren..... aber auf den Hohen Kapf/Eschach wollte heute niemand

OK.......
the view at the summit is zero point zero.
There is no summit cross, but there is a transmitter.

What should it
the sun was shining, it was icy/windy like everywhere else and the lentils with spaetzle tasted great afterwards.

January 12, 2025,Hohenkapf – Eschacher Weiher Runde von Eschach

Today we went for a walk with our snowshoes on our backs. The snow conditions on and around the Eschacher Weiher no longer allow for a snowshoe hike.
We still had a few lovely hours in the ice-cold air and beautiful surroundings.
On the way back we stopped off at the Wirtshaus zum Kapitel in Wiggensbach for a fantastic Kaiserschmarrn.

After yesterday's forecast of sunshine for the second day in a row in the Unterallgäu region and the neighboring Biberach district failed to materialize, @Sylvia V. and I spontaneously decided to head out today and go in search of the sun.

December 11, 2022,Eschacher Weiher & Hohenkapf 🫧🏔️

Made a small, fine hike to the Eschacher Weiher and Hohenkapf today in wonderful weather. Paths were already well groomed, only briefly from the Hohenkapf it was a bit steeper and smoother. But doable! 😉🏔️
