Beautiful little pavilion - for the view of the castle was probably beaten extra a snow in the forest.

From the Neckar footbridge, a wide, tranquil view opens up over the Neckar River, which flows here in a gentle curve through the valley. Depending on the light, the water …

August 1, 2021,Minneburg – Schöne Aussicht Runde von Neunkirchen
the route was ... ok ..... but not really something special .... that certain i was missing somehow .... looking at the castle was the best but also here with some drawbacks as most of it was not accessible .... then there were 2..3 views and that was it ..... the forest paths were mostly gravel or tarred and only …

The fourth day was real pleasure hiking. Because the route wasn't very far, there was plenty of time to stroll, discover and enjoy.

Just spend half an hour on a bench and look at the landscape. A nap in the grass at the Minneburg.

Today we tackled the 6th stage of the Neckarsteig. We turned the tour around because we had travelled by train. We started in Neckargerach. From there, after crossing the Neckar, we went uphill on a beautiful hiking trail to Minneburg. There are always beautiful views of the distance along the way. Unfortunately, as the castle is undergoing renovation work, it …

In the first few meters we unfortunately missed the path that was exactly on the bench of our start points test. That's why we didn't go a detour in Neunkirchen. Unfortunately, it was not so clearly visible, just like some other points on the way ... Only we were luckier there.

My Neckarsteig highlights today: the Minneburg & the thunderstorm on the OTHER side of the Neckar!
🏰❌️⛈️😄


From the Minneburg you have a great view of Neckargerach.
Judging by the remains, it was once quite a magnificent castle.
Unfortunately, you are not allowed to enter the main castle. (The entrances are locked.)
You can still take a great break in …

Somehow I thought I had already hiked all the stages of the Neckarsteig. But this week I realized that I was still missing two. So the decision for today was not difficult: closing gaps in the Odenwald 😊

From Neunkirchen we go through beautiful forest to the castle view. Through a gap in the forest you have a clear view …

This stage is not quite as exciting, as it mainly runs on wide forest paths with few views, especially in the first part. But it is still beautiful. Easily doable for anyone who regularly walks longer distances.
I spend the night at the Grüner Baum, which is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays in the restaurant, including for hotel guests. Then …
