Posted: Sat Sep 06, 2008 3:01 pm
Hi guys,
last week my nephew and me take a hike on the trail “Vulkanring Vogelsberg” in federal state "Hessen", Germany. It is a nice hiking trail that circles the largest former vulcanic area in Europe. We need 4 days for the whole trail of about 125 km:
My nephew and me at “Hoherodskopf”, 764 m over sea level:
The trail near “Ulrichstein”, the highest town of "Hessen", 610 m over sea level:
My nephew and me at “Schlossberg Ulrichstein”:
A look to the west from “Schlossberg Ulrichstein”:
My nephew with „Vegetable Manicotti“ for lunch, second hiking day:
Me with „Beef Enchilada“ for lunch, second hiking day:
The „Schwarzbach“ near the town of „Herbstein“:
„Uhuklippen“, congealed volcanic stone:
A nice alley near the town of „Herbstein“:
One of my nephews feet at late afternoon of the last hiking day (after about 120 km):
So long mreheater72

) for about 30 km, not a problem! About ten years ago I made some hiking tours at “Schwäbische Alb-Südrandweg (Donauwörth-Tuttlingen)” and “Main-Donau-Weg-Juralinie” (Staffelstein-Regensburg) with about 40 km a day! But I get a bit long in the tooth
