Theiß Valley near Niedernhausen

Highlight • Forest

In itself very beautiful.
Only the noise from the BAB and the train can spoil the mood, at least in the front part of the valley.

A super nice route, always through the forest, at the lake it is very idyllic and the forest is wonderful. And we were super lucky with the weather. Only the cellar head didn't want to give us coffee, unfortunately the weekends in summer are almost all planned for celebrations. So better plan a picnic by the lake.
