June 17, 2023,Von der Kuralpe zur Ruine Burg Tannenberg - und zuvor noch an 'nem Schloss vorbei

Wonderfully cool forest, a fresh wind up on the mostly shadeless height with its magnificent views, embedded in Art Nouveau, the Middle Ages and very good Odenwald gastronomy... the perfect hike on the first real hot day in Rhein-Main.

February 10, 2024,013/2024: Historischer Laubengang – Burgruine Tannenberg Runde von Jugenheim

Today I had the honor of being the only man to lead a tour in the Odenwald with 9 women. We started in Seeheim-Jugenheim. After a short walk through the village, I chased the girls up 8 kilometers, sometimes more sometimes less violently. I even received special permission at the first refuge so that we could take a rest after …

@Horst invited and 9 🚺 ran after him 😂.
Even though we only hiked there 3-4 weeks ago, there were many new trails. And finally not a drop of rain 👍
A very nice and happy hike has come to an end.
And got to know another function at komoot from @Pfadfreundin 😃

March 18, 2023,Tolle Runde ab Jugenheim über Heiligenberg - Kuralpe - Talblick - Burg Tannenberg

Varied tour with four different but good markings. Horizontal line to Kuralpe green, then red, shortly after Gasthaus Talblick then a yellow cross (crossroads just before the bench with a great view of the Rhine plain) and from Tannenberg Castle the blue castle of the Burgensteig. Very promising, the gradients are constant but never excessively steep, manageable even with moderate …

You pass the Sofien Hut (1904!) And the natural forest reserve, where the …

From Jugenheim we went today via Heiligenberg Castle up to the Kuralpe and from there back via the idyllic rural village of Steigerts to the castle ruins of Tannenberg.

There were places to stop for refreshments on the Kuralpe, in Steigerts in the Café Talblick and in Jugenheim, for example in the Gasthof Tannenberg. Various sunbeds and huts and shelters …
