Wide Forest Trail in Habichtswald

Highlight • Trail

In the past, you could still look for narrow lines in the forest here. Today the trail is very wide, as forestry work has been done here. Fun is still guaranteed on the trail!

The Erlenloch is a small lake in the Habichtswald. All around is a root trail, which can be expired quickly or can also be used for MTB riders to technically durchzuwedeln between the individual trees.
