A beautiful fifth day lies behind us, the path was varied and offered beautiful panoramic views.
Unfortunately, it was too hazy to see the Swiss Alps, the last clearly recognizable landmark was the Leibstadt nuclear power plant just behind the border.
Not the impression you want to keep.
But much more important

After the beautiful view from the Bildstein, we went down to the Schluchsee and from there continued on a three-meter-wide hiking highway.
Not so nice.
However, we were compensated for the last kilometer by a beautiful path.

The third day on the Schluchtensteig was fortunately not quite as strenuous, even though it went up to over 1100 meters in altitude for the first time.
The sky was a bit more overcast, which makes a big difference.
The paths were very good again, in some places there were points of contact with bike paths

After two days of digital detox, now for the second day of the Schluchtensteig;
It was a proper up and down from the start, with ladders and stairs.
Sometimes the Wutach rushes through the narrow gorge, sometimes the water has seeped away.
Together with the impressive rock faces on the right and left

From today we get to know the Southern Black Forest, or it gets to know us, depending on how you look at it.
We start on the Schluchtensteig, from Stühlingen to Blumberg.
At the beginning, gently along the Wutach, until at some point the mountain river character can be sensed.
There are steep ascents, at

So, after a long time we are once again on the Lennesteig.
After a great overnight stay at the Alpenhaus, we had to take some shortcuts, as time ran away from us after the delayed breakfast.

So, arrived at the mouth of the Sieg! Today the asphalt content beat everything before it, but that was to be expected. Grand finale after 8.5 days following the Sieg valley: the blooming cherry trees in Bonn.

After the Natursteig Sieg yesterday, we continued today again over the Sieghöhenweg. And, what a surprise: there was immediately more asphalt again! But it was okay, nice tour today.

That was a beautiful trail!
Narrow paths that meander endlessly along steep slopes....
Wonderful.
The last few kilometers into Wehr dragged on a bit, but that's almost always the case with these "final stages".
