January 22, 2023,Höchenschwand Terrainkurweg Heilklima-Wanderweg TK4 (DE) Wanderung (Einfache) 22.01.2023

A very nice easy hike, there are various difficulty levels to choose from. For my hike today I chose TK4. Most of the hike is in the forest.

There are very nice vantage points. There are always benches to enjoy the beautiful view of the Black Forest.
