Forest Trail and Wooden Bridge in Naturpark Soonwald-Nahe

Highlight • Trail

It's great to ride an MTB here and it's fun. Just be careful, there are often branches or trees lying across the area and there are hikers here (it's a hiking trail).

Herb Garden at Schloss Dhaun

Highlight • Monument

In winter, of course, nothing to see. Based on the many signs showing which herbs can be seen here, it is definitely a scented oasis in summer

February 8, 2024,Zum Schloß Dhaun mit Hindernissen

The Kellenbach flooded our hiking trail today. So we had to replan and took a somewhat boring forest path to the castle. There was a lot to discover there, just great! On the way back we even had some foresight. Conclusion: Water from above AND below doesn't put you in a good mood 😉
