June 8, 2024,Rundwanderung Munster: Narrenstein und 5-Pfennig-Weg

Today's circular hike from our hotel in Munster went up to the Narrenstein viewpoint👺 and further towards Frauenackerkopf. The way back led via the Sentier des 5 Pfennig (also GR 531) down to Munster. Here we were accompanied by a rain shower🌧️.
