July 27, 2021,Westweg Etappe 8 Kreuzsattelhütte-Kreuzberg Kapelle über Hausach
Another varied stage with the highlight "Spitzfelsen" with a magnificent view over Hausach.
The next overnighter about 1 km away from the Westweg near the Kreuzberg chapel

From the Harkhof, we first head up to the Harksattel and then on to the Kreuzsattelhütte. Here it starts to rain …

This truly delightful hike was on today's agenda. Besides a magically enchanted forest with some truly ancient wayside shrines, it offers, above all, panoramas, panoramas, panoramas. The end near Hausach is a bit steep, but otherwise, you can completely relax.

Westweg 4th stage took us to Hausach and we were able to replenish our supplies 😊 then we went to the Farrenkopf at 798m where we slept in the hut in heavy rain. The ascent is not without it from Hausach 😅🙃
