Yesterday we had a wonderful walk from Freudenberg up to the small village Hohenhain with a cosy little café. You can find it using the map view function at the left ... ;-)

As you can see in the workshop our hiking trail also is a part of the pilgrim's way from Marburg (where Elizabeth of Hungary, St. Elizabeth, is entombed) to Santiago de Compostela in northern Spain, to the shrine of St. James. You can see a map of all the pilgrim's trails in Europe which end in Santiago de Compostela here. This pilgrimage began in the 11th/12th century. Our hiking trail is a part of the branch coming from Erfurt in eastern Germany, leading to Cologne and further on to Paris and southwest France.


Always again the fresh foliage of the beech trees in spring is beautiful ...

Das habe ich auch an Pfingsten mit Freunden gemacht, durch die Wälder getreift und dem Frühlingserwachen der Vögel zugehört. Allerdings haben mich die Insekten ganz schön geärgert.
Wunderbares Fotos mit der stimmungsvollen Waldatmosphere.
Viele Grüße,
Achim

Hallo Frank,
eine schöne Aufnahme mit herrlicher, grüner Ausstrahlung; die momentane Farbenpracht in der Natur ist schon speziell.
Viele Grüße aus der Pfalz

Hi Frank
c'est le genre de sentier que n'affectionnes beaucoup en vélo, sentier tranquille sans trafic automobile et plein de verdure.
Amitiés
Jean-Pierre

Hi Frank.
I just saw Dorte's shot, and yours is a good companion to it. Lovely view along the forest path and marvellous sunlight in amongst all the leaves. The new growth looks so incredibly green. A delightful image of the late spring.
Regards,
Andrew

I agree with you that the woods look so fresh at this time of year. With the sun shining through the leaves the vibrancy of the greens have to be seen to be believed. you have captured this so well. Good work

Nice capture from the green forest Frank - and in fact could be anywhere in Europe I think. Fresh spring colours maybe some hiker included there had worked well too.

Hallo Frank,
Schöne Farben und sehr gut entdeckt.Die Komposition ist Exzellent, gratuliere.
Schöne Grüsse.

Good afternoon Frank,

This is a special trail. Do they permit mountain bikes? In my retirement, I would love to ride these trails from village to village. (I know I can have a good ice cream sundae along the way :-))

Hallo Frank. Der Wald im Mai mit frischem Grün. Eigentlich nichts besonderes. Für mich hat der Wald grundsätzlich eine besondere Bedeutung. Ich fühle mich dort zu Hause, wo es viel Wald gibt. Buchen- und Eichenwälder liebe ich am meisten. Und ich vermisse diese Art von Wald, wenn ich in der Fremde bin. Vor vielen Jahren war ich aus beruflichen Gründen für fast ein Jahr in Kiel. Und was habe ich dort am meisten vermißt: Wald und Mittelgebirge. Dein Photo ist für mich ein Symbol für die innere Verbundenheit mit dem Wald. Viele Grüße, wolfgang.

Un petit chemin ou il doit être bon de faire son jogging en été ! belle image avec des verts bien saturés mais qui demeurent naturels !

Salutations de suisse romande
