Popular circular route in the foothills of the Alps, Bavaria.
The Haspelmoor nature reserve, which gets passed through right at the start of the hike, is home to the northernmost remnants of raised bog in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps. It is worth allowing a little extra time - there are numerous rare animals and plants to discover in the renaturalised moor (please observe the signposts). From Hörbach, the landscape changes: instead of through the moor, the route leads through fields and forests.
The route can be comfortably explored by train from Haspelmoor station.
Highlights of the hike:
- Haspelmoor nature reserve
- Quiet forest paths
- St Andrew's Church in Hörbach
- diverse flora and fauna
