Today we went to Echzell with a hiking group. We hiked around the Wannkopf. This is a barely visible crest in the Echzeller forest. On the way back we passed three ponds. Echzell is a small town with half-timbered houses. We stopped at the wine bar. A comfortably furnished restaurant with good food.

We went to Echzell for a short walk. At the starting point there is a large hiking car park where you can also spend the night in a camper.

The forest is beautiful, the walk is very comfortably laid out.
The geocache walk is pleasant to do, but unfortunately not very well maintained.

Circular route from the car park at the edge of the forest around the Wannkopf. Beautiful summer tour, as it is almost exclusively in the shade and without excessively steep inclines.
