August 23, 2024,Von Schlettau auf den Scheibenberg 🚶🏾‍♀️🚶🏾‍♀️⛰️

So we had to re-plan and looked for the tour from Schlettau to Scheobenberg. From Schlettau we first go along a quiet residential street into …

Nice weather, good visibility, the paths either slippery or muddy. But it was nice. Unfortunately the inn on the Scheibenberg was closed, but the snack bar was open.

A beautiful tour, unfortunately without views today, but still with many highlights. The daffodils and bluebells are blooming in the castle park, and the organ pipes are stunning. The fantastic climb up the mountain (840 meters above sea level) was a completely new experience for me.

Actually, the climb up the Scheibenberg was also planned. But the paths didn't allow it today - they were either completely icy or you were ankle-deep in mud. But in other conditions, it's a great option and highly recommended.
