March 7, 2024,Wr. Stadtwanderweg 6

After 3 months in India, we arrived back home hungry for hiking. Today the city hiking trail 6 is available from the Mauer. Many people know it but it is more strenuous than you would expect with a lot of ups and downs. Recommended for anyone who wants to go on a quiet (weekday only) tour nearby with little effort.
