June 18, 2023,Erlebniswanderweg Fürth-Grasellenbach-Sigfriedbrunnen G8

Extensive circular hike over 16 km, mainly through the forest with springs on the way. Highlights of the tour are the view from the Walburgis Chapel and the Siegfried Fountain.
This hike for moderate difficulty leads past the Siegfried fountain. Hagen is said to have murdered the legendary hero Siegfried here. However, this could not be proven. Boards along the …

The tour corresponds to the circular hiking trail "G8" and runs for around 8 km from the Siegfriedbrunnen to the cemetery in Weschnitz on the Niebelungenpfad.
The Niebelungenpfad is also still on my list and I hope it works out this year 😉

I had actually planned a different tour, but since Loky was injured and the weather wasn't supposed to be great, we decided on the shorter route last night.

Directly from the hotel, we headed back along the Kunstweg (Art Trail) and mostly along the Nibelungensteig. There were some beautiful highlights and great views. The trails were varied, and the weather …

As always, we were mostly alone on the trail. Many beautiful views. The section between Wegscheide and the wind turbines is unfortunately less idyllic. Firstly, the hiking trail runs very close to the main road for quite a while, and secondly, the trail has been completely destroyed by heavy machinery, making it difficult to follow.

After we recently picked up the Bergstraße-Odenwald/Wandertouren brochure from the tourist office, of which we only had the old version, I realized that we were still missing a few of the 60 signposted, marked tours that can be found in it. So today we went to Grasellenbach, since the tour mainly promised forest and kept it.

March 9, 2024,🥾 Premiumwanderweg G8 Grasellenbach 🌞👍

The G8 is a beautiful and varied circular route that is worth it 👍🌞.
Chapel, springs and in Siegfried's footsteps 🐲 and all of this surrounded by great scenery and places to stop for refreshments.
This tour will definitely be repeated 😉👍
