Description
Hiking...With respect for wildlife and the environment!

 

In the Pölstal, we are particularly concerned about the preservation of unspoiled nature. So that the pleasure of the people does not become a problem for wild animals and nature, it requires consideration measures. 

For the sake of nature and the environment, correct behavior in the mountains is the top priority for the hiking enthusiast.

 

- Use the designated parking areas

- Do not block access roads and please respect local driving regulations

- Observe information boards at the starting points and stick to the recommended marked routes

- Avoid approaching wildlife

Directions
Von der Volksschule aus führt der Weg in Richtung Offenburger Straße und weiter nach Oberkurzheim. Die Naturstraße schlängelt sich vorbei an der gemütlichen Jausenstation “Offenburger Bergbauernstube”. An einer Gabelung biegt man rechts ab und begibt sich zur Ruine Offenburg. Die Überreste dieser historischen Stätte sind ein faszinierendes Zeugnis vergangener Zeiten. Nachdem man die Ruine passiert hat, setzt man den Weg fort bis zum ehemaligen Hof Schachmoar, wo man links abbiegt. Die Forststraße führt einen schließlich zurück zum Ausgangspunkt dieser malerischen Wanderung.

Die Ruine Offenburg erzählt stumme Geschichten von längst vergangenen Tagen, während der Hof Schachmoar mit seiner rustikalen Schönheit und dem Hauch von Nostalgie die Fantasie beflügelt. Die Forststraße bietet einen angenehmen Rückweg, umgeben von dichtem Grün und dem beruhigenden Rauschen der Bäume.

Diese Route ist nicht nur ein Spaziergang durch die Natur, sondern auch eine Reise in die Vergangenheit. Ein perfekter Ausflug für Geschichtsinteressierte und Naturliebhaber gleichermaßen.

Basic rules for hikers in the Pölstal...

 

Check your personal condition before every mountain tour and estimate your strength correctly. The length of your tour will depend on this. Plan each tour carefully. Pay close attention to the necessary equipment, make sure you have enough provisions and check the local weather forecast. Inform acquaintances about your hiking destination, as well as the planned return time, if necessary. Always stay on the marked trails. Always close fences and pasture gates. Watch out for falling rocks and do not kick any rocks yourself. Doing so will endanger other hikers. In case of bad weather, sudden indisposition or other difficulties, do not take risks and turn back in time. Avoid approaching wild animals. - Observe from a distance. Keep dogs on a leash. Use designated parking areas, please do not block access roads, and observe local driving restrictions.
