April 24, 2022,Geroldsklippe – Sofaklippe Runde von Bodenstein

Looks totally unspectacular on the Komoot map, but I have to say this was one of the best little hikes of the past few months, mostly on narrow trails. Still relatively normal in the first third, the path develops into a real highlight. Unfortunately, drought, wind and bark beetles have also left their mark here, but overall TOP!

Bodensteiner Klippen are always worth a visit. Make sure you bring time and if you don't know it yet, always go off the beaten track.
This time, however, we went straight to the Jägerhaus
