April 5, 2023,LU/ Ebikon- Rathausen- Luzern/ Holzskulpturen Weg, Nachmittags Spaziergang

A varied afternoon walk, from the Ebikon Schmiedhof bus station to Lucerne.
First a bit along the Rotsee, then it goes in the direction of Rathausen, then down to the Reuss. There the wooden sculpture trail along the Reuss begins and continues to Lucerne station, in very beautiful weather. 👍☀️
