Worthwhile stop. The beer garden is very nice in summer but also well attended.

Fernblick Country Inn

Top quality and superb taste: The crispy half duck or the venison steak are absolutely delicious. The handcrafted burgers on Thursdays are also a hit in their various variations.

October 31, 2023,# 064/2023 👞 Rodfeldturm – Gondelteich Runde von Horbach
I quickly decided to do it and implemented it quite quickly after work. But at the moment you have to hurry otherwise you'll end up walking in the dark forest. It's no problem if you're prepared... with lights and stuff 😁
A nice tour, even the sun 🌞 showed up. I saw Rodfeldism for the first time. Climb up? No, …

Today we went on the Spessartbogen tour up to the Rodfeldturm. In the humid temperatures I worked up a sweat. We didn't feel like stopping for a break today, so we continued the tour. The cloudy weather limited the visibility somewhat. So we made our way back.

I hiked the Gondelteich Runde in Horbacht / Freigericht with my friends. The Spessart between Hesse and Bavaria is something different from the flat marshland on the Elbe.

When we walked the Spessartbogen, we skipped the ascent of the Rodfeld Tower because it was so outrageously hot that day and we didn't feel like tormenting ourselves up an observation tower in the heat. That had to be made up for, of course, and it was actually worth it, because the view from up there is fantastic!
