January 6, 2023,Von Aub zur Reichelsburg und Kunigundenkapelle, und wieder zurück
Walked this beautiful tour from Aub today.
The Ochsenfurter Gau from its most beautiful side 😊

At short notice we wanted to bring our hiking day forward and quickly found what we were looking for here on Komoot. Many thanks to Unknown for planning this tour ♥️

Unfortunately, my GPS went completely crazy on the way back... 😅😅 If you want to follow the loop, you just have to walk on the marked paths, …

Uns wurde von Komoot die Ruine der Burg Reichelsberg vorgeschlagen und bei genauerer Betrachtung der Umgebung haben wir noch ein Hunnengrab, eine Keltenschanze, sowie eine Wallfahrtskapelle erspäht. Ebenso hatte es uns Aub angetan, sodass wir den kleinen mittelalterlichen Ort als Tourstart wählten.
Los ging es dann dementsprechend in …
