Today over to the German side and off to the Teufelsschlucht.
Was thought to be a little quieter today, it was, almost..... Only walking up the stairs was a bit difficult after yesterday 😂😊 and there are plenty of them here 😀

In the best weather we went to the Teufelsschlucht past the Dinopark. In the gorge itself it was nice but also very humid because bad weather was announced. Despite everything, we arrived dry again. A nice tour.

One of the most beautiful hikes this year. At a fork we left the Devil's 8 hiking trail and followed the old rock path. From then on, adventure continued moderately, it was really great.
