A bit like in a fairy tale! One has the impression that one has arrived in another world or at least in a mixture of Sweden and Russia

Great place to rest. Entrance from the flower magic path, which takes you directly to the orchard.

May 20, 2024,Luisenturm - Schloß Kochberg 🏰
The weather was simply fantastic again 🤩 and when do you ever have so much time on a Monday?

It was a beautiful hike, easy and varied.
I had assumed we'd encounter some floral wonders along the way, but no.
The small, colorful house was pretty to look at. Its purpose, including the brick fireplace and interior furnishings, unfortunately remain unanswered.
The Luisenturm tower was unfortunately closed (again).
But... simply wonderful.

Beautiful, varied short hike. Recommended in early May when the orchids are in bloom.

What a beautiful little hike!

I took the Orchid Trail up to the Blassenberg, which will be a highlight in a few weeks. A very beautiful, narrow hiking trail. In …
