This route was planned by komoot.
Start the tour from the Zieflensberg car park and then run the round anti-clockwise. Advantage: The Alb crossing (without a footbridge over stones or branches) is pretty much at the end and you don't have to go that far with wet feet :-)
The themed path is ideal for young and old hikers and offers a lot of variety, but only with sturdy shoes.
Today we were in Bad Herrenalb in the Upper Gaistal. There is the 🐈 Wildkatzenwalderlebnispfad and it's really well done. The majority is on paths, there are always interesting facts about wild cats and there are some creek crossings. One of them very adventurous. A real recommendation for young and old, especially since it is not really long at almost 6 km.
Also for children very varied and beautiful circular route. Good shoes recommended...
Did the wildcat trail near Bad Herrenalb today! 👌 Luckily our Black Forest wolf didn't find any 😱🤭
The path leads partly along narrow, rustic paths and partly along wider paths. At one point you have to cross the Alb, where we had already stopped the hike once before because we thought the water level was too high to get to the other side with dry feet. This time, however, it looked exactly the same as it did then. Since I knew that friends had walked the path two weeks earlier, it had to be possible to cross in these conditions... We were already close to wading across without shoes or trousers when a few people came along the other side of the path. They had jumped over a narrower part a little further ahead. However, there was a very muddy path to walk on beforehand, as they said... Since Junior had already got wet feet in a puddle, we didn't want to go down this muddy path. Then we discovered a small "bridge" made of tree trunks further ahead.
Despite the rain, after sitting all day, we went for a walk on the Wildcat Trail. The approximately 6-kilometer trail often goes up and down narrow footpaths and over stepping stones through a small stream. Part of the trail even leads through a nature reserve. Along the way, there are several interactive stations and information boards that are particularly interesting for children. If you want, you can climb a rock before the Knoll Bridge. The Wildcat Trail is not suitable for strollers.
Sunday walk in Bad Herrenalb on the Wildkatzen path. A very nice and informative round. From single trails to forest highways to creek crossings, everything was there. A great recommended round
