One of the really great places in the region. Unfortunately, there are too many cars in the area during Corona times.

Steinbruchsee Meßbach

Highlight • Lake

A quiet spot in the middle of nature. For a short break to breathe super suitable, but not more unfortunately.

Bathing forbidden. A fishing club has leased this old quarry …

Next tour from the homepage of the Geo-Nature Park Bergstrasse-Odenwald.
The route is "ASP-suitable" 😉 over forest paths around the Fischbachtal, varied with wonderful views, the Renaissance Lichtenberg Castle, the bulwark and a detour to the Rimdidim (not part of the original tour).
The Hottenbacher Hof near Klein-Bieberau is unfortunately only open Fri-Sun.

From the series "We test the official MTB circuits", today the Fi-1 Fischbachtal. 😂

Subtitle: looked at @Dieter ODW where he is always on the go😉

Entry into Lützelbach in the far west is practical, as there is a large car park.

Around the Fischbach Valley, you'll find countless great opportunities for views and photos of the magnificent valley setting. Lichtenberg Castle and its fortified ramparts are at their best.

21°C and the best weather - let's go outside. This time in the Odenwald to an old friend: Rimdidim.

FI 1 (and MO1) - a real yawn for trail lovers - the trails are more for marathon XC. After the many disappointed comments from trail lovers (e.g. @Harpo), I was …
