Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This Great Kamm Trail takes you over hill and dale. The old Gerzweg captivates with a beautiful view.

Teufelskanzel

Highlight • Viewpoint

This is certainly one of the most beautiful vantage points in the area. In the foreground is the horseshoe-shaped Werra loop and behind it the Hessian mountains build up. On the right you can see Ludwigstein Castle, opposite is the Kaufunger Forest and on the left is the Hohe Meissner.

Mountain hut & inn Teufelskanzel

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The inn is certainly not easy up here, but a rustic inn to my taste, so it can be expensive at times.
Especially because of regional cuisine 👌

Lindewerra Village

Highlight • Settlement

Lindewerra still has a Stockmacherei that is open to the public. Furthermore, there is a canoe dock and a mobile home parking space right on the Werra Bridge. From here you can also see the old patrol path that leads to the Lindewerrablick vantage point.

Lindewerrablick Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here is a natural viewing terrace with a wonderful view of the Werra valley to the south. There are benches, some of which are covered, and there is also a small observation tower so that the view does not become overgrown again so quickly. In the foreground is the stick-making village of Lindewerra. The reflections in the Werra are also very photogenic.

Coming from Ministerblick on the Kolonnenweg towards Rimbach, there is a bench above the parking lot with a beautiful view of the castle 🏰Hanstein.
Or through the gate on the grounds of Ludwigstein Castle.

Very nice vantage point with a view of Hanstein Castle from the south. Nice setting through the trees. Benches offer the opportunity to rest.

The climb over the column paths from Lindewerra is quite a challenge.

So the prospects you have on this round are overwhelming BUT you have to have more than basic condition. It is steep and slippery downhill but the strenuous part of the tour was the approx. 1 km steep uphill for humans and dogs. Since, among other things, there are also slabs adorning the path with openings where the dog kept …

Today we went "on foot" through nature again - to Lindewerra to the beautiful view of the Teufelskanzel 🥰 !
The way there was steadily uphill, but the great weather and the forest meant that the ridge path was in impressive light!
The pulpit itself is really a beautiful place - with a breathtaking view over the Werra loop!
You …

Today I was out and about along the Hessian border again. I set off clockwise from the hiking car park below Hanstein Castle.
To the Teufelskanzel and down along the beautiful ridge path to Lindewerra.
Then came the 🔨. From the small village, the Kolonnenweg (colonial path) led up to the Lindewerra viewpoint. The gradient was always over 20%. It …

On the last day of the holiday, we went through the deciduous forest again, which is now getting its leaves very quickly due to the warmth.
From Lindewerra, via the beautiful ridge path (Theodor Storm path), you reach the Teufelskanzel with the opportunity to have a good meal and enjoy the view. Continuing via the Hanstein view to the "Hutschke …

After inspiration from @Wilfried Marx, we ended up back in Lindewerra. We have a really great piece of land 🌍 on our doorstep.

A beautiful hike, although not an easy one due to the altitude and the extremely steep climb in the second half. The extremely difficult climb from Lindewerra to Werrablick can be avoided by bypassing the mountain.

This weekend is the castle festival at my favorite castle 🏰

Many thanks to Constantin, who is responsible for the (r)😂

I've already set it up and was able to do my obligatory round to the Teufelskanzel today,
since the Klausenhof in Rimbach is unfortunately closed for the weekend,
I treated myself to a delicious meal with a Teufelsradler in …
