December 27, 2025,Spontane Wanderung ... GEIL 🥳

Today I'm spontaneously heading to Brohl to climb the alpine trail on the Dicktberg ☺️

Awesome! So beautifully rocky with slate, steep and narrow, and the view of Brohl and the Rhine is absolutely worth it 😎

A short break and then it's on to a trailhead, which, like the view 🎦, is monitored 🧐
