Schlaue Biester sculptures at Ruhestein

Bus stop, refreshments, toilets and the new, futuristic visitor center of the national park. Good point to stop for lunch or visit the center. This is also where most of the ranger tours of the national park begin.

December 3, 2023,Wanderung und Rodeltour zur Darmstädter Hütte ☀️❄️

Today we took advantage of the snow in the northern Black Forest.
We actually wanted to run our laps as usual. Since the piste was open, we walked straight to the Darmstädter Hütte. Unfortunately the hut is temporarily closed.
Then we went down on the sleigh.
My RC car in the pictures also bravely endured the tour. 🙃
