Schelde Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

The way to the actual spring is quite overgrown in the summer months and accordingly the ticks danger in shorts high. But worth it to stop by here (see comment above).

September 7, 2025,Felsformation Wilhelmsteine – Silbersee Runde von Tringenstein

No cycling today, but preparation for a hike.
Start in Tringenstein with a visit to the castle ruins.
Continue to the Wilhelmstein Natural Monument rock formations and Silbersee.
The entire route mostly ran through the forest—very pleasant to walk, except for a few minor bumps.
A nice conclusion to my preparation for my hiking holiday.
