Beautiful, relaxed hike around Airlenbach in the Odenwald.
To do this, simply follow the green B3 marking.
The starting point is the “Thick Oak”, which, with a trunk circumference of 8.30m and 800 years old, was the first natural monument in the Odenwald.
The hike alternates between various great panoramic views (of Airlenbach and Olfen), narrow, really idyllic forest and …

A very beautiful and varied route on well-maintained paths with plenty of rest stops 🥾☀️🌳. Highly recommended 👍😁

A nature-loving, easy 11 km hike through the Airlenbach and Olfen districts of the town of Beerfelden for hikers who love peace and beautiful scenery.

The circular hike begins at the "Fat Oak" in Beerfelden-Airlenbach, which is steeped in numerous stories and legends. The oak is also called "Siegfried Oak" after the hero of the same name from the Nibelungen …

I never voluntarily do the same tour in quick succession... But since it was so beautiful here two weeks ago and so disappointing in the Palatinate last week, I did the round again. The sun was shining, the apple trees were in bloom, there were more animals in the paddocks... simply great!

Variant of the tour from April komoot.de/tour/355442606. Start at the Olfener Höhe hiking car park (more space than at the Dicken Eiche). We walked the tour clockwise so that we had the narrow paths towards the end and could still pick a few blueberries there.
