Kornberg Steig Trail

Highlight • Trail

So the technical thing is certainly here when it rained the moisture and thus the risk of slipping. Otherwise the trail is rather normal and without any major difficulty.

Wild camping after the party (roof tent and mobile home) with a small sibling hike

It had already been announced in the media, and I had hoped to see it with my own eyes – today it happened:

loud screeching announced it, and then a huge flock of cranes flew over us.

> It was so beautiful to watch >

A beautiful Kornberg hike with a stop at the Kornberg Hut. On the way back to the parking lot, we witnessed a special natural spectacle: the "Migration of the Cranes." More than a hundred cranes flew in formation, calling loudly, past the Kornberg in a westerly direction. A beautiful conclusion to the hike.

Below the Kornberghütte is a small NSG (juniper heath). Orchids bloom here in spring and gentians and silver thistles in autumn.
Please stay on the narrow paths so as not to trample on the wonderful flora. THANKS

Short but beautiful.
And that's how I like it; Rainy weather, light rain and very strong wind with hurricane gusts.
So I didn't meet anyone again today!
