August 4, 2024,„Kirgel Ausblicke“ Premiumwanderweg Gaildorf

Beautiful views are omnipresent on this tour. But what always floods me with happiness hormones in the Swabian Forest - as on this tour - are the many butterflies that flutter around the side of the path and feast on the summer flowers.

A fairy trail newly created in 2024🧚‍♂️🧚‍♀️🧚 - in Gaildorf..The path is not yet completely finished, the excavators are still hard at work (thank God not today, on Labor Day🤭) and the great viewing platform at Kirgel is not yet officially accessible🤣

Unfortunately, I thought too late to use Komoot 😕 But if you take the destination point B as your starting point, then follow the road and then walk along the path S1 towards point A, you are on the right path, the fairy trail is also very well signposted ☝️
