Ludwig Tower (Hahnenkamm)

Sunken lane in Naturpark Spessart

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A beautiful and long ravine that used to be asphalted, but which has now been covered by the mass of earth flowing down. Quaint. Can also be mastered with the MTB without any problems.

It's been far too long since my last visit to Hahnenkammsee, but this weekend it worked again. This place, provided it is not overcrowded, exudes so much tranquility and is incredibly relaxing.
