Loop
Legends and stories combined with beautiful forest and meadow passages, distant and panoramic views; that was today's nice combination of the 11km long hike “Kelberger Episoden”. The start of the hike is the market square in Kelberg and the first highlight is the parish church of St. Vinzenz, built in the 12th century. Further along the stream of the Herreinseifen it goes to the Surbüsch where you can find the “Pointed Cross”, a vow cross from a legend from 1639. Past the “Red Ants” the path leads via Zermüllen to the old oak, an oak that is around 350 years old. Another highlight that you pass shortly on your return to Kelberg is the Way of the Cross and the chapel on the Schwarzenberg, as well as the final resting place of fallen soldiers. A super nice, interesting hike with many historical and scenic highlights.
