Beautiful, quiet hike in the Taubental on the butterfly path. There aren't many highlights along the route, but you can walk on beautiful paths for about half of the route and you'll also pass one or two rocks.
Very pleasant to walk and nothing is happening...pure relaxation!

A car inspection was due today and it was wonderful weather🌞. So we said to ourselves, put on hiking boots and bridge the waiting time nicely. We walked part of the beautiful butterfly trail. Then time was running out and we had to take the quickest route back to the workshop.
A photo is not from this tour 🤥! 🤔Who …

🅿️ at the Naturfreundehaus, then first encountered poison bait warning. After the beautiful long path accompanied by rocks and blueberries, leave the butterfly path at km 5.7 and turn right, mostly beautiful paths, from photo #31 of the marker again butterfly path to the end

...at this point a thank you 🙂
The route and the markings have been renewed and are now much more eye-catching than 1.5 years ago.

Very nice rooted path through Taubental.
Not so heavily frequented and therefore also correspondingly quiet...
Ideal for switching off...😃

The circular route in Kirkel has been newly signposted, but it is still difficult to find the entrance to the very beautiful butterfly path from the Naturfreunde Haus. You have to improvise something. But the path is ideal for hot summer days, highly recommended. Today we choose the short variant.
