Hello friends of well-groomed hiking,

After the morning shift we went out into nature. So the decision to go to Haslach's local mountain - the Urenkopf - was easy, my first ascent in 2024!
Unfortunately something went wrong when cutting the tour, so I had to import the planned one into a completed one. It went much faster this time, …

Today we drove to the Kinzig Valley again. This time our destination was Haslach, where we did the Urenkopf hike.

The circular hike begins and ends at the parking lot on Waldseeweg, about 300 meters north of the Waldsee. The route first leads past the Vulkan concentration camp memorial and up to the observation tower on the Urenkopf. The observation …

Hello friends of cultivated hiking,

been on one of my house laps again. The snow drove me out of the house, the air was lovely. A really cold wind blew on the Urenkopf tower so that even the flag didn't feel like flapping - it was frozen!
Otherwise hardly met any people.

At 6:27 a.m. we took the Black Forest Railway from Baden-Baden to Haslach. I've driven through this part of the Black Forest many times, and made a few small stops, but today was my first time hiking here. It was a great tour. It had rained quite a bit overnight, but the narrow paths were still easy to walk on …
