Haus am See – Restaurant & Café, Kell am See

Highlight • Restaurant

Cozy lakeside terrace with catering and a small menu - not outstanding, but not bad either, and a good place to take a break.

November 12, 2023,Traumschleife Hochwald Acht (Nordschleife)

Today's hike was the "Hochwald Acht dream loop".
Since it had rained a lot in the last few days (weeks), we only hiked the Nordschleife (approx. 9 km) and that was a good thing. Shortly after the end of the tour it rained again.
Nevertheless, it was a nice hike through the beautiful autumn high forest, even if some of …

Actually I wanted to do the whole tour today. Motivation was there. But by the time I was back in my slippers, it was already 1 p.m. again. The weather was crisp 🥶 the ground was partly muddy or deep-frozen and well-being was not at its highest either. The rest will be tomorrow or so 🙈🤷🏼‍♀️to the climbing forest/Park Koala, …

Dream loop Hochwald Eight - lower loop...
far away from stress, control, cheering and hustle and bustle you will find here in the beautiful high forest 🌳🌲silence, serenity, fresh air and lots of nature.🌿🌼

Since this dream loop has an 8 shape and is 20km long, it can be divided into 2 routes...one of 11km and one of 9km.

October 2, 2024,Kleine Hochwald- Acht

Finally hiking again 😍 !!! (albeit still slow and somewhat limited)
And finally a new dream loop for me!
The choice fell on the Hochwald-Eight...but only on the first small part.
Beautiful nature trails with lots of roots and the almost constant rippling of the stream made this little tour perfect for me. With the subsequent round around the lake, …

April 18, 2024,🇩🇪 Vrouw en Hond technisch K.O. na Saarburg... ik nog even snel naar de Ruwerquelle 🤩

The ladies had collapsed after Saarburg and the Coiffure's were not in much better shape 🫣 so we went out alone for a walk from Landal Hochwald with yes... a lovely sun 😎🤩 Just made a familiar tour along the Ruwerquelle and the Wassertretbecken are two wonderfully photogenic places and the paths in between are always good for some useful …

September 17, 2022,Wanderung zur Ruwerquelle

Did a hike in the Hunsrück today. At 11°C and a mix of sun and clouds with a heavy rain shower, the summer of the last few weeks was very far away. Excellent singletrack. I had to pull back a lot, especially on the downhill stretches, so as not to start running again, which would have been counterproductive due to …
