A little man was standing in the forest, not entirely alone. There were many others (unfortunately most of them were already lying on the ground). I've never seen so many before. Lucky me! I chose the right route.

There are new things …

A very beautiful hike in the Erdtal valley, amidst the snowdrop blossoms. The approximately 600m section to Schreckenfels is very narrow. A steep drop through the forest on the right side. With a dog leading the way and occasionally pulling, it's quite difficult. In dry weather, however, it's doable and varied.

Spontaneously decided to run together in the Erdtal.

Also beautiful in autumn, even if it was slightly slippery today. But sturdy shoes are a MUST there anyway, at least I think so.

➖ Erdtal, further to
➖ Grosser Schrecke, after descending from there along the valley towards Schlattstall and just before the town up the forest path …
