Krähenberg viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The natural hiking trail leads here over the Krähenberg along the edge of the forest and accordingly a wonderfully wide view reveals itself over the hilly landscape.

I always love going here! A very beautiful path with a view of the valley and the cute goats that sometimes accompany you on a walk. A few even let themselves be petted today.

After I "stole" this tour several times from @Marina ☀️ and @Yvonn❤ (thank you for the pre-hike 😉) today after work I continued to the starting point at Gut Roggenthal and finally put on my hiking boots to do the round to run 😄.
What can I say, a really wonderful hike through forest and meadows with wonderful views and …

On my last hike to Klus Eddessen, I noticed the quality hiking trail with the funny name, and so I chose it for today's tour.
I started at a small parking lot in Dalhausen (corner of Ober. Hauptstraße and Ringstraße) and from there walked the first kilometer up to the Mariengrotte (Mariengrotte) on a familiar path. There, the trail branches …

Once at the top, narrow paths lead me along pastures with great views. The sun can be fully enjoyed up here. Then it …

This route always works. The climbs are demanding, but the paths are good, varied and well signposted. The prospects reward the efforts for the climb. There are also enough benches along the route and we also found the title heroes. - When the goat becomes a gardener.
