Pentecost varnishes (path 15)

Half-day hike that leads constantly uphill over meadow and forest paths and, with a little patience, is also suitable for families with children.
After a short walk on the state road, you reach the sunny farm driveways and across meadows into the shady forest. Soon afterwards you reach the highest point of the hike, the “Eichberg”. After a short while you finally reach the “Pfingstlacke”, on the bank of which you can take a long rest before returning the same way.
