Ice Age Trails 16/20 ✔️

I haven't walked an Ice Age Trail for a long time. So today I tackled the Ice Age Hunters Trail, a rather shorter but incredibly worth seeing tour. The 9.5km alternate highlights and beautiful paths, but you do have to really puff up the mountain twice.

Just like its northern twin, the "Felsenstieg", the "Eiszeitjägerpfad" offers extremely enjoyable hiking. But rather not at ground level, because almost 400 meters in altitude over less than ten kilometers have to be mastered. Except around the train station and in front of/in Weiler, you are always on paths, and even more often on velvety paths.

Since I had 2 hours until an appointment, I took the opportunity to "hunt" my 2/20 ice age paths.

Great area, surprising views and rock formations, but also tough climbs...

All in all a really nice round.

After I was at the hand surgery in Ulm this morning - a syringe 💉 from Dr. summer 😀 in my thumb ✋, I stopped in Blaubeuren for hiking.
Today only little Bärli was there - if I had known that things could be done so quickly in Ulm, Teddy 🐕 could have come too.
