August 19, 2023,Wunderschöne Wanderung von Dürrröhrsdorf durchs Lieblingstal und durch das Tal der Wesnitz

Our hike begins in Dürröhrsdorf, a charming town in Saxony. From here we follow the hiking trails through the favorite valley. This route takes us along streams, through forests and meadows, and offers an idyllic setting to enjoy nature. We continue to the chestnut lake, a beautiful body of water that is ideal for a rest.
From there the hike …

Second hike after my knee injury, with a bandage it's manageable, at least the smaller things. Let's see how it develops until the start of the new hiking season. MRI in 14 days. But I can still recommend this hike to everyone, it has a touch of the Seifersdorfertal.

December 31, 2021,Dittersbach, Lieblingstal, Zwergenhöhle..

Small round to run out on the last day of the year. Ventilate your soul, take a deep breath.

March 26, 2024,Durchs Lieblingstal zur "Schöne Höhe" und zur Zwergenhöhle

A nice relaxing hike. The restaurant on the "Schönen Höhe" is unfortunately closed until further notice and the tower castle can only be visited on weekends. The GPS signal was disturbed in the “Schöne Höhe” area and the recording was interrupted unnoticed in the Favoritental.

July 20, 2023,Lieblingstal – Zwergenhöhle Runde von Dittersbach

Since most hotspots here in Saxon Switzerland are beautiful, but also very well attended, we deliberately chose a round in a quiet environment today. So today we visited the "favorite valley" and in fact we only met 2 other hikers. A really beautiful area that leads a lot along the water. Unfortunately, luck has now left us with the beautiful …

After four days of Christmas stress, today was a treat for the soul. The kids were invited over and lured with a picnic, the frost crackled in the air, and the sun shone brightly... perfect conditions for a successful family hike.

Nice walk. It's easy to take a break at the well-kept pond, especially when there's a thunderstorm, you stay dry, but according to the signs, it's under video surveillance.
