Winter hiking to Hinterwald
The winter hiking trail runs largely along the wider tracked cross-country ski trail. Thus, hikers and cross-country skiers can enjoy nature together.
Shared joy makes you twice as happy. Along this hike, the section on the cross-country ski trail Hinterwald to Schaupphof and on the right bank of the stream back to the village is extra wide tracked, so that not only cross-country skiers but also you as a winter hiker can discover this part of Donnersbachwald.
