Today a hike from the offer: "Black Forest Hüttenwinkel".
In bright sunshine and the ideal hiking temperature, we started at the train station in Elzach. The tour is very well signposted. Due to the ups and downs, as can be seen in the elevation profile, it is quite strenuous. I was no longer aware that 12km can drain me like …

A beautiful path, requires some fitness, but you are always rewarded with beautiful views of the valleys. There are always benches to rest on. The route is very well signposted.

A varied and beautiful tour.
From Elzach, the route alternates between forests and pastures with fantastic views and lush green meadows.
At the height of Ankenbühl, you have a beautiful view of the 1,000-meter peaks opposite, such as Rohrhardsberg and Braunhörnle.

Big plus points of this tour are definitely the multitude of beautiful valley views. In addition, you walk a lot along forest-free areas, which is nice especially on sunny days ☀️ But …
