Merbach Stream Crossing

Highlight • River

Here a little sure-footedness and a good sense of balance are required, because you can only get to the other bank dry with the help of the small stepping stones.

Spitzlei slate rocks

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Spitzlei are a series of shale rocks. Lei stands for rock, as in the case of the Loreley, for example. Around the Spitzlei there is a good chance of seeing deer, wild boar and especially deer.

November 13, 2021,Wisper Trail: Dickschieder Wildwechsel
With a rain probability of 60-90% today, I prepared myself for a quiet day, extremely couching and maybe something in the garden during the rain breaks was the plan. But I didn't expect my sweetheart. She said the weather would be better in the Wisper Valley. So off to the car, drove through an extremely thick fog soup to Dickschied …

The 9th Wispertrail - today it was the turn of the Dickschieder deer crossing. This morning I first looked at the weather forecast - the rain and fog in Dickschied should be manageable. On arrival we drove through thick fog fields and at the parking lot at the village community center we asked ourselves whether we were actually crazy - …

What a tour! Perfect weather, animal sightings like in the zoo, views like in the Alps and paths that meander over the mountain ridges.
An absolutely recommendable tour.

In the winter wonderland with great weather 🌞❄️🌞❄️🌞 we walked with @Taunus Mo😎🚶‍♀️🚵‍♂️ on almost untouched paths through the snow, hardly saw a soul along the way and were able to enjoy great viewpoints.
The untouched glittering world of snow was breathtaking - the photos speak for themselves.

For this tour you shouldn't be afraid of steep ascents and descents, one section is particularly challenging. There was nothing to be seen far and wide of the eponymous game crossing (you don't necessarily need to cross wild boars either). The only animals were those in the falcon yard. The reported sunshine lasted only an hour, after which the constant …

Wow...really really good...when I drove to Lorch to hike the Rheinsteig yesterday, I had to go through this really great area...So today I did one of those great Wisper trails....

Great paths, trails, ridge paths and beautiful meadow paths... Attention: crisp climbs 😫👌👍

Really recommended... Super nice hiking area...

Yesterday it took me back to the Wispertaunus.
This time in the idyllically situated place Dickschied, approx. 420 m above sea level, you live here in almost untouched nature, surrounded by the forests of the Taunus, which fascinate in every season. The village is an excellent starting point for hikes through the woods, on the Wispertalsteig or the Rheinsteig.
