A beautiful forest path that leads to a nice rest area in the forest near Waldeck.
The last part is (unfortunately) again a "construction work - do not enter" sign .. but it was passable for me in July 2021.

September 20, 2024,Waldecker Schloßgrund

A short, easy walk in Goethe's footsteps, typical Thuringian woodland just 15 minutes by car from Jena, surprisingly idyllic, quiet valley, well-developed paths, partly wet due to small streams crossing, small castle plateau (without castle), Wolfsschlucht, old fish ponds and finally, of course, the legendary nougat ice cream in Bürgel.😉

Oh, I like it in the Wolfschlucht. The round should actually be longer, but today it was just too hot for me 🥵

September 10, 2023,Mücken-Futter 😁 Futter-Pilz Runde bei Waldeck 🥾📷

Today we set off for a spontaneous hike in the forest. With the temperatures it's only bearable there 🥵
For the first part of the tour, as the tour name suggests, we served as mosquito food 😜 but from the pond onwards they were bearable 😁
The temperatures were very pleasant 👌🏻
We kept looking to the left and right …
