Location

In the hills in the "Höllenwald" ("hell-woods") between Schmitten and Finsternthal.

Participants

Plans

Little walk in the morning before we get some guests in the afternoon.

Expedition

Little walk, ey? We drove to Schmitten as this was the closest town according to our Falk navigation system. We realized that we wouldn't get close enough so we tried what Google was suggesting in the first place to approach the hash from Finsternthal and walk up the "Schmitter Weg".

Stopped when the road became too dirty and walked the rest of the way. The hash was about 200 meters into the woods up a hill, you can see this nicely in the track log. We walked about 3.7km with a change of elevation of about 170 meters up and down again. Very nice weather, lots of sun, a little snow on top of the mountain, great hobby.

Photos

Parking on the "Schmittener Weg". LadyBB preparing for the walk.
Hmm, this reminds me of the sign yesterday ;)
The hash must be up there somewhere.
Coordinates ...
... reached.
"The hash"
Looking from the hash to the rest of the way to the top of the crest.
Stupid grin with the hash in the background.
Shame the photo can't convey how steep it is and how far we climbed here.
Snow in front, sun in the back, how nice.
What a sunny day.
Even sunnier.
