Description
The hike follows the Chastelbach to Himmelried. The return route through the picturesque Chaltbrunnental is pure romance. 12,000 years ago, gatherers and hunters already used the protection of the caves in Chessiloch. Today, the place is especially known for the coat of arms rock where soldiers left their marks during World War I.
Highlights: Coat of arms rock Chessiloch - wild romantic Chaltbrunnental - part of the karst educational trail
Extension: Continuation to Meltingerbrücke (4.3 km - 1h 20)
