Kollbrunn Ridge Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Short but very nice. The path runs gently up and down along the ridge.
Easy to walk with no problems, just a bit slippery when wet, as always on root paths.

Rörlitobel Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Quite a narrow ravine, currently (August 2021) difficult to walk as parts of the path have been muddy or even washed away. Hearty waterfall, but difficult to see through the foliage.

View of the Alps from Zurich Uplands

Highlight • Viewpoint

When you come out of the forest path, you have a very nice view of the Alps.

Zeller Giessen Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

In cold winters, the Zeller Giessen turns into an icefall. This is really worth seeing.

Zigzag trail with wooden sculptures

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Newly laid out or restored path with wooden sculptures in every bend. The path is very well made: stairs, bridges, railings, slope protection and therefore very easy to walk on. Part of the "Paul-Burkhardt-Weg".

Today's circular hike starts from a free car park and leads to the Kollbrunner Grat, with its root passages. What do mathematicians do in the garden? Pull roots. The path then leads into a ravine and to the Tüfels Chilen. The Tüfels Chilen is a special landscape in the municipality of Zell / Kollbrunn. It is the source of the …

I can also take it easy sometimes 🤣❣

Today I had arranged to go for a "hiking walk" with a friend from Lake Constance and the tour through the Bäntal by
@Bodenseebiker Thurgau and
@Patrick Göser
was just the right model: optimal distance and altitude, easy forest paths, lots of nature, few people.
Thank you 🙏 both of you for …

August 9, 2022,🚶‍♂️ Kollbrunner Gratwege - Tüfels Chilen Quelltuff - Bäntal - Gratweg Stechpalmen - Giessen Königstal, Runde ab Zell 🌞🤩

Since I had to pick up my bike from the service in Eschlikon anyway, I went for a hike in the nearby Tösstal beforehand.
Conclusion:
Above-average hike over a number of rooty ridge paths, through a long, wildly romantic valley with a tufa spring and to a Giessen (waterfall). All of these sections are in the forest and can therefore …
