From Einöd via the slag mill to the parking lot, it runs smoothly. However, there is a lot going on when the weather is nice. Mutual respect is required.

Kleinreh Mill

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Great stop for hikers. The smoked fish (also to take away) are a poem. There is also coffee, cake and snacks. As a Mühlenweg hiker you have to plan in advance!

After all sorts of pondering over the whys and wherefores, I finally came to terms with it. Secretly, though, I still …

Today we were hiking in the Fichtel Mountains. The weather was rather moderate, and it rained for about half the tour. Nevertheless, we had fun: beautiful scenery, hardly anyone around, and our rain gear held up. The tour is a mix of singletrack, forest paths, and paved bike paths.

... often read, much praised, the Steinachtal and the Steinachklamm. Today finally the long planned round.

We took advantage of the sun and cycled a little across the sunny meadows, over the jungle trail past the large beaver castle, before going through the great Kosertal up to Marienweiher⛪️. The sun warmed our backs again and again.
After Marktleugast we took the mill path towards Kleinrehmühle, that used to be a great path, just the forest....🙄 no …

A lovely little loop from Wirsberg, along the mining trail to Marktleugast. From there, we took the mill trail to the Kleinrehmühle mill. There, we treated ourselves to coffee and cake 🎂 before heading down to the Steinachklamm gorge and the Nordeck ruins.
In Stadtsteinach, we did another loop through the bike course before returning to Wirsberg via the primeval …
