June 26, 2022,Wanderung des Turnverein 1868 e.V. Bad Orb

Today there was another hike for my gymnastics club 1868 e.V. Bad Orb. Our hiking guide Dieter Reehe had again prepared a nice round.

From the small hiking car park on the Spessarthöhenstrasse on the Wegscheide we set off first in the direction of Burgjosser Heiligen. Then continue along the donkey trail via the Hohes Kreuz and Markberg hiking car …

Since I had an appointment in Bad Orb today at 5 p.m., I quickly walked a trail there beforehand. I hadn't even found this on my "tracks planned list" and only discovered it by accident.
Now to the track: 🥱 well, only the section at the Sölchesweiher was interesting. The paths were easy to walk on. In the end there …

A wonderful tour - completely in the forest with a fantastically beautiful path to the pond. I'm excited

After lunch, we tackled this Spessart trail.
The partly winding and overgrown (hollow) paths also make it ideal for hiking in summer.
Here and there, memories of my hike along the Spessartbogen in 2022, which runs partly parallel here, came back.
Recommendation!

Relaxed 🥾🎒🔃 lap to run out after yesterday's spectacular stadium ride⚽...
The highlight is definitely the middle section with winding forest paths, a pond with a rest area and a ravine, regardless of whether you go to the right or left!
Nice little short circuit to enjoy with lots of shade, also interesting for families with children👍
stay wanderful 😎✌🏽

May 22, 2022,Spessartspur: "Hohes Kreuz Bad Orb und Markberg"

A route that is well suited for a spontaneous Sunday afternoon tour. Lots of evening primroses are currently growing along the first stretch of forest. If they bloom soon, it will certainly look beautiful. You also have a wide view of Alsberg! The tour then continues over the Spessart arch. Through an idyllic ravine we reach the Sölchesweiher, which is …
