February 5, 2022,Shopping und Wandern im Odenwald 😎😋
Shopping in the 's Ernschtle unpacked country followed by a hike in the beautiful Odenwald is highly recommended 😎😊🤗

Via the Drei Länder Eck and the Niebelungen Steig to Waldleiningen Castle and via the Limesweg, past some old remains of the watchtowers, back 🙂👌👍

Today the weather was just right for this tour. Not too hot and not too cold. Great tour in the Neckar-Odenwald. The climb from Waldleiningen Castle towards Hesselbach via the Hesselbacher path is tough and we worked up a sweat even in the temperatures. We then returned to the starting point via the informative Limes path.
