May 8, 2022,Hohe Möst – 12 Apostel Runde von Oberschönau

A very nice tour with wonderful views. Unfortunately no Thuringian hospitality, Kanzlersgrund was open, but private company, everything was empty on the terrace, but we couldn't get in... Oberschönau ski hut closed, but two people were sitting outside in the sun at the table with a beer. Nothing left for thirsty hikers. Pity

For us it was 30-40cm of powder snow today on partly untrodden paths to the Hohen Stein, from there to the Hohe Möst and back to the starting point... Absolutely no picnic under the conditions 🤣 - after all, the sun has come out on the last two Kilometers presented again as a mood lifter and given motivation to persevere …

Very nice hike with beautiful views in wonderful sunny spring weather. A certain level of surefootedness and hiking boots are necessary.

Not suitable for strollers!

In the first part there are some nice rest areas.

Currently, the abundance of blackberries and raspberries sweetens this tour, which I highly recommend. And if that's not enough, you can enjoy a meal at the inn kanzlersgrund.de.
