I had actually planned an extensive hike at the Hornisgrinde and a visit to the mermaid.

The reason for this was a fairly "stiff breeze" and visibility of less than 50m.
Maybe another time🤷🏻‍♂️

Worth seeing but once is enough 😁

Nestled in the mountains of Schliffkopf, Hundskopf and Schwabenkopf, the Lierbach falls almost 90 meters below the All Saints Monastery through a steep-walled porphyry gorge over 7 steps. …

Today we only had a short tour planned, so @Rita mit Ronnie 🐕🌳💚's tip was perfect. Thank you very much for that! The waterfalls are very impressive and have a lot of water after all the rain. A small but very nice round.

All Saints Waterfall is a very beautiful natural wonder with a lovely circular trail.
Due to limited parking, you should arrive early on weekends.
I started my circular trail at the All Saints Chapel and enjoyed the consistently beautiful view of the waterfall from the top. When I arrived at the main entrance, there were already lots of tourists milling …
