The tour can be started from a car park. But also from the train station.
Then it goes through the town to the lower entrance of the gorge. There are many beautiful miniature buildings on the path. The whole thing is maintained on a voluntary basis. A nice experience for children too. After the …

Hello everyone, today we went hiking as a couple. We made our way to the Obrunnschlucht, we stopped at the hiking car park and started towards the circular route. Very nice tour through the forest, which also had hiking trails outside. Shade and sun alternated. The route was well described except for one passage, according to Komoot we should have …

The Obrunn Gorge is more for children, but we still had fun. Jim Button, the Mouse Tower from Bingen, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs, and much more.

In an open field under the sun, we enjoyed the warmth and the view. A fun group invited us for mulled wine (on an open fire), but we declined.

The hiking group managed to squeeze in another great hike before the end of the year. And we continued to work off those Christmas calories 😂. Today's hike took us to the Odenwald forest, through …

The husband, rested from his three-day week, thanks to the bridge day, plans to take a little peek into the Odenwald. His wife, quite exhausted from work and completely exhausted from her night shift, agrees without thinking...after some initial skirmishes, it turned out to be a relaxed get-together.

We started at the Höchst station and walked up the Obrunn Gorge. The path is lovingly designed and is suitable for a trip with children. You can only shake your head at the vandalism, it's a shame that something like that happens. We went over the Hardtberg through atmospheric forest and meadow paths to the BF Mümling Grumbach. The view …
