Scenic Loop in Saxony, Germany.
A very beautiful circular hike through the forests at Hromadnik. It is said that the devil himself had a romp in the rocky landscape. So you can find his footprint and - who would have thought it - furnishings such as windows and washbasins near the mountain. By throwing a stone into the window, one should be able to find out if he is at home: if a stone comes back, he is present in his Saxon residence. If you're hungry, make another detour to the Czorneboth Tower and stop at the mountain inn there.
Highlights:
- Devil's foot and devil's washbasin
