August 11, 2023,Spangenberg S 5 - Rundweg Vockeröder Heide

Since @Anna-Lisa likes to see the heather in bloom, it made sense to walk the S5 while the heather was in bloom. And well it was very hot, I think 28°C. Otherwise, the path was scenically very nice, mostly we went through the forest or along the edge of the forest. Unfortunately, it was almost all over gravel and tar. …

I started again at Spangenberg's market square. Initially, the S5 runs identically to the S4.

It was obviously still too early for the heath.

I was able to use one stamp. Otherwise, it's just a forest highway.
