June 24, 2024,Rothsee – Jagdschloss Holzberghof Runde von Bischofsheim in der Rhön

The Rothsee, the visitor mine, and the hunting lodge were on the list today. Combined with a very nice hike in a beautiful landscape. The hiking trail leads mainly through the shady forest, which was good in the heat today, because some stages are a bit challenging.
My conclusion: One of the most beautiful hikes I have done so far …

August 9, 2022,Rothsee – Am Rothsee Runde von Frankenheim

A relaxed, easy round on shady forest paths, partly along the stream.
In addition to the very beautiful Rothsee with many benches and places to stop for refreshments, the Teufelsmühle, the small "Visitor's Mine" and the "Holzberghof" hunting lodge are other highlights.

May 20, 2024,Rothsee – Teufelsmühle - Holzberghof 💦☀️

Today we went on a family hike at the Rothsee. From there to the Teufelsmühle and the Holzberghof (unfortunately everything was reserved). So we went back via the quarry to the Rothsee and stopped off at the Fischerhütte.

There was still some time left in the day, which we used for a short hike. At the Rothsee we saw a lovingly constructed small show mine. The following hike was first uphill and then downhill. A little strenuous - but worthwhile.
