Krippenfelsen Cave

Highlight • Gorge

The cave at the Krippenfelsen is very low. You almost have to crawl in if you want to sit down there.

Choir Rocks

Highlight • Natural Monument

Since the two chairs were still there when I visited, I can only assume that sometimes - instead of a choir - a duet does its best there.

These rock formations, worked by the elements and time, display mysterious engravings, created by anonymous artists over the centuries. Walking among these rocks, we discover fascinating sculptures and impressive natural reliefs, all in a peaceful and wooded atmosphere.

On today's holiday we drove to our neighbors in Lorraine again and did a very nice tour from Lemberg.
The start was at a hiking car park at the former Lemberg train station. After we left the town, the whole route went through the forest on many narrow paths past rocks and caves, a waterfall and a pond.

As I wanted to be back home in the early afternoon today, this relatively short but very nice hike was a good fit.
The tour, which is very well signposted with a yellow ring, leads mainly along beautiful paths past rocks, caves and small …

September 24, 2024,🇫🇷 Lemberg: Felsen, Grotten und Kaskaden 🐗 🌧

Today was an adventure! First I did some research into where it would rain the least. To be honest: Walking on the moon is possible, but not a more accurate weather forecast? It's surprising... In the end, it was to be Lemberg in France, where it rained steadily for 2 hours and then on and off, contrary to all forecasts. …
