Weissingkuppe Rock Labyrinth

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very nice hike over the meandering path. After the stairs go up the rock right side. It is a so-called mushroom rock: The heavy boulder sits on a base of small circumference. Fascinating.

Today with light and shadow. In the truest sense of the word. 🙈

We met up on site at 9.30 sharp with a good friend and our favorite dog.

It was supposed to stay rain-free all day, although it was very cloudy and slightly cold. But there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes, and we go out into nature whatever the weather. The route really wasn't bad. Mainly through …

Second attempt
After I intelligently deleted everything yesterday after taking pictures and describing the tour, I had to upload the planned tour as done and describe everything again 😡.
The speed here is almost right (the terrain really slowed me down) only the altitude is not, with all the detours it was a good 150 meters higher.

Nice hike on May 1st.

There were people at the hot spots. Otherwise a quiet hike through mixed forest, most of which is on single trails.

After being out with my best friend today, the focus was clearly on exchanging ideas and not on photography.
