August 25, 2025,"Schlossbrunnenweg" - Fabelweg, Premiumspazierwanderweg

The Castle Fountain Trail in Knüllwald-Wallenstein is a 4.8 km long, certified walking trail. The route leads from the Wallenstein Castle ruins through a forest-lined valley. Highlights include the view from the castle, the historic castle fountain, and a stream with steps. A quick stop on the A7 motorway; we were introduced to this place by @Biber 🦫😊...

The section in the southwest, which runs through the forest, has been badly damaged by harvesters, deep tracks, puddles of water, not for sneakers. Hiking boots are therefore recommended. This damage will probably never be repaired, otherwise the forest owner would have taken care of it long ago.

On the short hiking trail around Wallenstein Castle you will experience a picturesque meadow valley, beautiful forest paths and wonderful views! The short circular hiking trail in the …

The hike shaped like a 🦌 on the go - hopefully everyone jumped into the new year well. The weather also feels like spring - like a new beginning. 🍃🕵🏼‍♀️
The crunch itself is no longer a beginning for us, but the "Schlossbrunnenweg". This existed before the creation of the fable trails, so we followed the old recommended route. Therefore, …
