Impressive hike along the Nesselwang waterfalls. Partly over hill and dale. Very steep and muddy in places. There are a lot of steps to climb. But as already mentioned, very impressive. In the middle of nature!

Schlossbächel valley

Highlight • Trail

Extremely many stairs. It was definitely too many for me. The path is not for me. I prefer to walk uphill. Still beautiful scenery around the waterfall and waterway

After an adventurous ride on the AplspitzKick, we took a short walk to the Kronenhütte. I highly recommend the wonderful Kässpatzen (cheese spaetzle) there!

Autumn tour through the colorful forest ☀️
