- Description
-
This hike starts at the Thannhausen municipal office and leads up to Calvary via the Way of the Cross. It then continues along a forest path and back again via a great forest path. This short circular walk is perfect for winding down after a long day at work or simply a quick tour while the sun is still shining in the late afternoon. With its not too steep climbs, it is suitable for the whole family. You can also take a little more time to take a closer look at the Way of the Cross and Calvary and enjoy a spiritual hike.
- Directions
-
We start our tour at the Thannhausen municipal office. First we follow the road towards the castle wall and then turn right at the first crossroads.
There we can already see the first sign of the Thannhausen Way of the Cross. Keep to the right at the road junction and then turn left at the next opportunity to turn onto a gravel path.
Pass a large grey house on the left and enter the forest. We follow the cross path until we come to a road. There we keep to the path that goes along the Way of the Cross.
Soon we arrive at Calvary. We turn right onto the road and follow it until a forest appears on our right.
We go slightly up into the forest on the right and follow the path. Soon we reach a clearing and follow the path. When we reach the next road junction, we keep to the right and walk along the road for a while.
Soon we reach a section of forest again and turn sharp right here. We follow this path until we come out next to the Way of the Cross again.
We go back down the Way of the Cross and take the same path back to the municipal office. - Highest point
