May 20, 2025,Wanderung zum Hohenbogen

Home is home. I'm back in my old hometown for a few days. Visiting my aunt and cousins.
But of course, I also have to make time for a hike.
And this tour was a challenge. We went over hill and dale and scree up to the chairlift. Of course, we didn't ski down, we walked down. Again, over scree.

March 12, 2022,Neukirchen Hl. Blut - NATO Türme - Retoure

Enjoy a round of the Bavarian Forest again. Thanks to the community for sharing the route, it was once again very worthwhile. From the monastery through fields and forests to the former NATO monitoring station and back on the other side. Very good hiking trails, but sturdy shoes are advisable. In the lower area you can already see that spring …

A strenuous ascent is rewarded with a stop at the Schönblick mountain hut with a wonderful view. Unfortunately the viewing platform of the former NATO listening post Communications Sector F was closed for maintenance.

Today is our last day of vacation and we went on a final hike at Hohenbogen. It was a bit hazy and fresh in the morning, but after a lunch break with homemade Kaiserschmarrn, the weather improved and we were able to enjoy the view.

May 1, 2025,Runde Neukirchen b. Hl.Bl. vom Schönblick über die Höhen

Almost only beautiful forest paths, gorgeous views, and something to eat every few meters 👍😃
...I just got a little off the path at Schwarzriegel after 3.5km 😅 and ended up in the bushes.

Sorry for the many pictures from the viewing platform, but due to the rain coming up and the constantly changing motifs, I just had to upload everything. ;-)
