April 16, 2023,Tour zum Storchendorf u. Schwalenberg

Today, despite the drizzle, our tour took us to several beautiful places. First Lügde, a place with very beautiful old half-timbered buildings. Then we went to the stork village, there were 9 occupied stork posts, great to watch. Then Schwallenberg, also very beautiful old half-timbered houses. All around a nice bike ride. Except for the rain😒🥴

It's a shame that the path was closed. It would be nicer to drive past the edge of the forest.
