Pleasant winter hike with a clear view of the idyllic village of Fischbach.
A leisurely winter walk - always with a wonderful view of the high-altitude climatic health resort of Fischbach and the Joglland-Waldheimat region.
The path is always cleared (as it is the access road to the houses and farms) and is therefore also ideal for strollers. The return route follows the same hiking trail.
