January 2, 2022,Rund'Ebersteinburg: Wolfsschlucht, Burg Alt-Eberstein, Battertfelsen, Schloss Hohenbaden

The tour also includes the premium hiking trail "Extra tour Ebersteinburg-Rundweg" wanderinstitut.de/premiumwege/baden- wuerttemberg / extratour-ebersteinburg-rundweg / of the "German Hiking Institute"! oho !! ..and something more! The weather was unfortunately not good for photos, even rain in …

One of the most beautiful tours we have ever done in this area. Wolfsschlucht was new to us.

We must tackle the Battertfelsen on our own and then also take the small paths like 'Einsiedlerpfad' -> but certainly not on the weekend.

I've walked the Ebersteinburg circular trail several times 🚶‍♀️ , just not in winter. Well, we don't have winter right now. A beautiful circular route that includes the upper and lower Felsenweg of the Battertrunde with the Felsenbrücke and also the Ebersteinburg, Burnt Rocks, Lukashütte, Wolfsschlucht, Engelskanzel and the Old Castle.
I also really wanted to pass the rock bridge …

Hello, everyone! Today we were out and about in Baden-Württemberg in the sunshine (see German Hiking Institute/ Premium hiking trails). Ebersteinburg The forest is very diverse along the entire hiking route, you don't often come across so many tree species, in addition to ash, sycamore and small-leaved lime, there are also wych elms in the ravine forests. In autumn the …

It finally worked 😍 Mother-Daughter Day in the most glorious sunshine. The tour is really awesome, super nice 🤗
Thank you very much for the inspiration, W Schulze-Möbius 😊 We were very enthusiastic

A spectacular tour full of highlights that will surely be remembered for a long time, although we have already walked most of it more than once.

Why? Because we were able to climb the Alt-Eberstein-Bergfried for the first time, Hohenbaden Castle was largely freed from construction work and scaffolding, we courageously went to the edge of the abyss 😱 several …

From the hiking car park I first made a detour to the Teufelskanzel. The Furtwängler Weg and Engelskanzel take you to the Untere Batterthütte. The lower rock path leads along the Battert massif with its amazing rock formations. The old Hohenbaden Castle is definitely worth a visit. There are great views of the Merkur, the Reihenebene and the Vosges. Now …

Round from last Wednesday on the Ebersteinburg Rundweg near Baden-Baden.

With a sunny temperature of almost 20°C and little crowds, it's always nice to walk.
A lot of sights in a short distance.
