Rauenstein is part of the town of Pockau-Lengefeld. Particularly noteworthy here is the castle, which has towered over the Flöha valley for over 700 years.

Today we went hiking again in our beautiful Ore Mountains. Right at the beginning we made a short detour to the Jüdenstein. Then up to Rauenstein Castle 🏰 and from there through the Flöhatal back to the starting point in Pokau. As a reward we had a delicious cake 🍰 and coffee ☕️ in Café Mauersberger 😋

Today we crossed the bridge in Pockau on foot for the first time. The hike was along the Flöhatalweg. The outward journey was quite good, but the quality of the path on the return journey was a complete disaster. Up, down, up, down. Broken paths, tons of angular and sharp-edged stones, and in places muddy where the sun never shines. …

A very scenic hike, with many small highlights, but also with many muddy paths.😓
The wonderful sunshine was really good for the old bones again, and things went much better straight away. 😊 It could stay like this. 🌞
