Barfußwanderung Steige um Warmensteinach
Leider gibt's ein paar Schotterabschnitte, sonst wäre die Tour perfekt.

(Pilz-)Wanderung zum Poppenberg
Diesmal nicht barfuß, nicht nur wegen der Kälte. Das Suchen nach Pilzen und das Barfußwandern gehen einfach nicht zusammen.
Ein paar Steinpilze und Rotkappen, viele Maronenröhrlinge und schöne Wanderwege - das wars.

Great route, only the marked mushroom spots are missing - joke-

Barfußwanderung rund um den Iskaraberg
Nicht, dass jetzt jeder seinen Pilzkorb packt und losrennt: Mehr Pilze gab es nicht. Der Wald ist ziemlich trocken, deshalb dauerts noch, bis die Pilzsaison losgeht.

Barfußwanderung im Kragnitzholz, Plössener Heide, Seybothenreuther Forst ...
... oder wie auch immer dieser schöne Wald heißt. Jedenfalls gibt es hier viele tolle Wege und Pfade zum Barfußwandern.

Another great hiking and trail report. I find the condition of the trails really interesting.

Barfußwanderung auf die drei höchsten Berge im Fichtelgebirge
Eine anspruchsvolle Tour, ich würde sie allerdings nicht weiterempfehlen. Am Ochsenkopf wimmelt es vor Seilbahntouristen, der Wanderweg zum Schneeberg ist seines Namens unwürdig, oben verfallen die leerstehenden Gebäude und am Fichtelsee wurden wieder mal Wege mit Schotter "verbessert". Positive Highlights sind der "Naturpfad am Weißen Main" (eine Perle unter den…

Sonntagmorgen barfuß auf den Berg zum Kneippen
Nach unzähligen Heimatrunden mal wieder eine (Lieblings-)Tour im Fichtelgebirge, diesmal sogar komplett barfuß. Am Vormittag hält sich der Trubel am Bayreuther Haus noch in Grenzen, auf den Wegen und an der Kneippanlage ist man allein.
Den Abstecher zum Tannenberg am Schluss kann man sich sparen.

It's amazing how long a knee injury can last. Hiking is going quite well these days, but the car ride is still very painful. Maybe Kneipp therapy will help.
Regarding the Kneipp facilities:
The Kneipp facility in the Mausbachtal valley was very well maintained; the water was clean, deep, and nice and cold

The time estimate is nonsense, of course.
Surprisingly, the Jägersteig between Haselbrunn and Pottenstein, like the Schwedensteig, is not a marked hiking trail and is more of an insider tip, but maintaining such trails is more time-consuming than gravel road trails. Therefore, these trails are mainly

One of my favorite hikes (despite several gravel and asphalt sections).
One advantage of barefoot hiking is that you can do Kneipp therapy in streams or lakes whenever you can, practically as you pass by (if you always have to take off and put on your shoes/socks first, you usually don't do it). Of course

It's still quite cold in the morning, so I wanted to have breakfast on a bench in the sun. It ended up being more of a lunch break.

The fountain is called the Easter Fountain all year round. There used to be a real Easter fountain tradition (drawing water) here, but only the little tree remains.
Bayreuth, by the way, gets some of its drinking water from the deep wells here.

The official starting point is Gesees, but you can also easily start from the beautiful hiking car park near Spänfleck.
Many informative information boards, well marked (but only in one direction). Overall, the route is somewhat asphalt/concrete-heavy (more than 50%), and very noisy near the highway

Some people find these paths too boring, but barefoot is a lot of fun.
By the way, the ticks are already on the move.

Hiking in hiking boots didn't do me any good; I've had a painful "swollen knee" ever since. But it's not so bad; hiking barefoot is fine again.
