Popis
Deep in the deepest forest – here somewhere modern Hansel and Gretel might get lost in the deep woods. The cell phone is with you, but there is no network. The forest rustles, but not the signal. And who in times of “Resch&Frisch” still carries old bread crumbs? The hiker can confidently rely on the good marking...
The 616-inhabitant community of Dorfstetten lies at the edge of the largest continuous forest area in Austria and is more than 80 percent forested. The Weinsberger Forest offers plenty of space for meditation, but our selected route, the “Meditation Path,” also tempts us to numerous wonderful viewpoints. The one-hour detour to the Mistelmauer is highly recommended because of the beautiful view into the Sarming valley.
