Embark on a magical hike through the Drebach crocus meadows and enjoy the blooming splendor of the "Naked Maidens".
Current status: Information from the municipality of Drebach
The 2025 crocus bloom has ended! The rain yesterday and today damaged many crocus flowers, and the gusts of wind caused many flowers to simply fall over. Nevertheless, after the dry winter, we still had an impressive crocus bloom this year.
