Druidenstein on the Dillenberg

Located in the municipality of Cadolzburg - Keidenzell, easy to reach from the parking lot, sturdy shoes are a must. Distance from Keidenzell itself approx. 3KM from Cadolzburg approx. 20KM.

Today our hiking group "the foot sick" went on a night hike on the Dillenberg.
