View of the Wolfslohklamm

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here in the Wolfslohklamm the rounded granite blocks can be found in heaps. However, the name Klamm is misleading, it is more of a notch valley. From above you have a good view of the Leraubach.

Beautiful hike in the Upper Palatinate. - Leuchtenberg
The hike starts quietly and, as always, uphill😜
Beautiful forest paths to slow down without stress. Then into the Wolfslohklamm with interesting motifs and to linger.
The climb to Burg 🏰 Leuchtenberg is easy to manage. On the other side of Leuchtenberg it goes downhill again to the Pfarrhäusl. We almost walked …

The start and end of the round was Kaimling. On the way there we went over the three hand stones, the Wolfslohklamm and the rock group "Des Teufels Butterfass", on the way back then through the beautiful Lerau valley.
