Loop
Circular hike; Start / finish Maiental (public car park near the refuge with information board). Very nice and easy to walk path up to the Griesberg. Note the forest destroyed by drought, bark beetles and wind throw along the way. Other large parts of the firs are brown and will surely be felled soon. Nevertheless, the hike leads through rustic paths through intact deciduous forest. The route is not very frequented by hikers or mountain bikers. The route was recorded on June 1st, 2020 with a Garmin Montana 600.
