A great view over the valley. In the summer it also likes to overgrow. Attention no fuse available.

The remains of the monastery church form the most impressive part of the monastery ruins. Its cross-shaped floor plan is clearly visible in the still-standing walls, which display architectural styles ranging from late Romanesque to late Gothic.

All Saints Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

I recommend hiking the All Saints Falls from the bottom to the top; they look more spectacular this way, as you always have the falls in front of you. They …

April 15, 2022,Karlsruher Grat - Runde von Allerheiligen Wasserfälle

Ha, I've been looking forward to a Good Friday hike for a long time. But then came the disappointment today. Caused by own laziness; Because I didn't do any research at all, otherwise I would have seen that 2 things I hate the most are plentiful:

The sky is covered in clouds ☁️ as we reach the parking lot of All Saints. The dogs 🦮🐕‍🦺 are restless and know that they are about to go on a tour through the woods 🌳🌲 again. This is always a special treat for her.

We spontaneously changed the Karlsruhe Ridge loop: after the ridge, we headed toward the All Saints' Monastery and the All Saints' Waterfalls. Unfortunately, we then had to walk back a bit to the monastery. From there, we headed to Ottenhöfen and the Edelfrauengrab parking lot. A very nice hike. Especially on the way back, there was not a soul in …

After only hiking 2 times in the last 3 months, it's about time to get my leg muscles used to it again to get fit for autumn ☺️

So today I joined a group of hikers, although the weather forecast was rather bad and we went to the Karlsruher Grat. It was actually also planned to walk over it, but …

Today we had quite a lot planned. We wanted to conquer the Karlsruher Grat. The slope was still OK but over time it got harder and harder. It looked easier on YouTube. Since we had no climbing experience and I'm also a bit afraid of heights, we gave up.
But then we had to climb down a pretty steep slope …

Beautiful but strenuous, sometimes challenging tour. We really underestimated the Karlsruher Grat.

Unfortunately, Komoot stopped working at some points and only continued the tour as the crow flies.

Beautiful scenery! We treated ourselves to an ice cream and cappuccino at the Allerheiligen ruins.

May 30, 2024,unterwegs in heimischen Gefilden....

This morning I discovered a gap in the clouds with blue skies in the direction of Ottenhöfen, packed my backpack and off I went. Parked at the Ottenhöfen quarry, then went over the Karlsruher Grat (today I was completely alone there, wonderful), then to the Allerheiligen waterfalls and back again. Nice round, even if it got wet in between 😃
