March 19, 2023,Vitaltour Eremitenpfad 🇩🇪 ab Bretzenheim

A visit to the Hermitage is always impressive. This time we followed the Vital Tour, which leads through the vineyards around Bretzenheim. The route is very well signposted, there are numerous opportunities to enjoy the view and to rest. On the way (rather at the beginning of the route) there was also a fridge with delicious wines/drinks from the region, …

Today I went for a walk with friends and the dog in the Nahe region. Not the best weather for a hike. Mud. But no matter. Off we went. Cheers and see you soon, Marcus.

Today I hiked the Vitaltor Eremitenpfad with friends, with a detour to the field railway museum and an extra loop at the quarry.
Of course it started in the rain at the multi-purpose hall in Bretzenheim, first through the vineyards with beautiful views. At least the panorama pictures show that the view is beautiful here when the sun is shining. …
