Beautiful beech forests, fantastic views over the Alsenz valley, silver mining in Stahlberg, a Roman estate, a Celtic menhir, endless rest stops, the best weather and always a cool wind at the heights - that was simply a perfect hike!

Today a short tour over the heights of Katzenbach. The weather held up, no rain, a little wind and lots of grey clouds. This tour is very quiet and offers great views. It goes over field and meadow paths (the grass is super high) and also a bit through the forest. Pure nature 😉
