Hiking

One of the few opportunities to take a break on my round... but this one is in top shape and there's also some cultural stuff...

Hiking

Rest area at the crossroads. The Nonnenweg has not quite reached the highest point here

Hiking

Unspectacular, but comfortable nice-weather rest area (because there is no roof) along the so-called nuns' path. Named after the unmarried daughters of the Rieneck counts, who, according to legend, took this route to the former Cistercian monastery in Schönau in order to become nuns there.
