September 19, 2022,Gassirunde: Stegen: Baldenwegerhof - Schlangenkapelle

A small, proven loop nearby that I hadn't walked in a long time.
First it goes on wide paths in the direction of Stegen, past the allotment gardens, then slowly uphill along the beautiful Dobelmatte. Shortly before the Scherereck, the beautiful forest path begins, which leads us to the chapel of the snakes. From there mainly on paths down again. …

Very nice but also very strenuous for the inexperienced

Beautiful landscape with the typical foliage color. Our group loved the track. Thanks to Barbara, from whom I copied the walkabout.

Today, before the coming change in weather, we took advantage of the available time window and fine weather phase for this small, fine Dreisamtal loop.

Here – just outside Freiburg and the Hochschwarzwald – the Dreisamtal shines with its beautiful side valleys.
