Join us for a hike to see two castles and enjoy amazing views over Baden Baden. We're going to start on a high point in the hills, which makes this hike relatively easy.
Hike details and sights:
- 9.4 km
- 260 m ascent, 490 m descent
- Wolfsschlucht
- Lukas-Hütte with views on Murg valley
- Eberstein castle: There's a cafe, so we can take a drinks and bathroom break.
- Battert rocks with amazing views on Baden Baden
- Altes Schloss Hohenbaden with more viewpoints
- Finally, we're going to Baden Baden, where we can have a walk around the city and maybe take time for another drink or food.
Getting there:
- Take RE 2 from Karlsruhe Hbf to Bühl, departure 11:07, platform 11.
- We're changing to a bus in Bühl (X44 to Bad Herrenalb), which will take us to Ebersteinburg Wolfsschlucht - arrival time 12:20.

- snacks for lunch time
- weather-appropriate clothing

I encourage you to contribute 2-5 € per year (not per hike!) to cover membership costs. Meetup has been getting quite expensive.
If you can't give for any reason that's alright, you're still welcome to join!
