And today again just a short tour. Testing what's possible. Maybe in 2-3 months a long-distance hike after all?

May 29, 2025,Bosensteiner Almpfad und den TT lüften auf der Bosensteiner Alm

A short relaxing hike before the weekend shift 🙃
The Bosensteiner Almpfad trail is a beautiful hike in parts. Starting at the Bosensteiner Eck, the trail initially leads unspectacularly along forest highways through the forest. From the lift house, the trail continues along beautiful rocky paths and past viewing cliffs through a partly open landscape with fantastic vantage points.

I started my hike at the Kernhof. First, I made a detour to the old Lifthisli, where they serve ice cream and cold drinks. The Lifthisli is a relic of bygone times that reminded me of the early days of skiing in the Black Forest. After a few steps, the path leads gently downhill. The weather was clear, and I …

The Bosensteiner Almpfad was a feast for the eyes and nose today. We started straight away across a freshly mown meadow 🤩. There was something to smell everywhere. Sometimes it was resin from the trees, sometimes a sweet scent of flowers. The paths were mostly to my taste, but there were also forest highways to cover some distance. I found …

In the evening, the question was "Lynx Trail or Bosensteiner Alm Trail?"
The choice fell on the latter. We started at Ruhestein via the B 500, first a good stretch down the valley towards Seebach. From the lowest point, there are beautiful paths up to the Kernhof.
From there, a not entirely well-chosen path across the meadow is just like …

Today was the first day in the Black Forest. Since Axel still had to work, I drove up very early this morning to hike the Bosensteiner Almpfad. It is advisable not to choose the parking lot at Ruhestein as this is subject to charges. In the direction of All Saints you can park directly on the path and save yourself …

"From the Ruhestein hiking car park, after crossing the Schwarzwaldhochstraße, the path leads steadily downhill through a beautiful old forest area to the Schwarzenkopfstraße (forest barbecue area). After crossing the street, the tour continues downhill for a few minutes and finally branches off to the left at a fork in the path. The hiking route continues through the original mountain …
