Up here on the Dörnberg plateau you have the opportunity to hike beautiful circular hikes (of shorter or longer duration) at an almost even height.

January 2, 2025,Alpenpfad – Helfensteine Runde von Zierenberg
Between sleet, rain and almost sun, I ran this nice route on partly familiar and partly unknown paths. I was alone at the start, but when I returned to the parking lot there were a few cars there. I really enjoyed the peace and quiet.
