It's been two parts already (my 2 previous posts) where you could see my walk as I make my way to the top of this hill here at Eschenau, Obersulm Germany. Well, the view of this antenna behind those trees is the first sign that I'm only steps away from it:
However, I see a sign pointing to a hiking trail:
Yep, unsurprisingly I follow it:
Seems to be a good choice as it leads me to this hut which actually is THE highest point of the hill:
Nothing fancy inside:
Looks much more cute from the outside, especially at this angle where the merciless sun doesn't ruin the image:
While one has the option to sit here,
it doesn't make sense to walk all this way up without enjoying the view. this bench allows you to enjoy both though:
The view to the fields below, Affaltrach town and Breitenauer lake is simply stunning:
Now it's all downhill for me, literally, so let's go back to that antenna though it obviously can't impress me as much as the view just did:
My birthplace is full of such stuff but I didn't expect to see these up here:
This thing is tall enough to start a "fans only":
Not as beautiful though at all:
On my way down I see something that looks like a trail:
So instead of going back via the paved way,
I jump into the woods:
Soon there's not much of a trail left but it's walkable:
This place is so full of tall trees that it barely gets any sun hence it actually never dries:
It's so heavenly to walk in here:
The art of nature at humid places:
Trail is kinda lost again:
And when I find it later there's more muddy puddles:
I'm loving it though:
And the green art of nature:
The trail is about to end leading to the tarmac in the backgroung:
Thank you sweetheart, see you next time around (god knows when this will be... and if 🙂)
I might be walking on tarmac now but I'm still in the nature's hug where I meet some cute fungi:
The route leads me back to the grill hut which I covered on the first part (a) of this series:
Now there's three ways to choose from:
I take the one that feels the shortest to me cause it's getting hotter and I've walked already a lot. It was and still is a fruitful walk though, literally:
I so love the green contrasting the blue/white sky:
Though I'm already quite tired I see this tempting deviation:
I soon abort it though as it feels more like invasion of privacy:
I told you I follow a tarmac route but that doesn't mean I can't walk over this wonderful green carpet:
Finally I'm back at Eschenau where I stay and I must say it's not a bad neighbourhood at all:
In the following video you can watch bits of the whole walk in 4K:
Thank you so much for following, see you on the next one!
