Before the year ends, I quickly took the opportunity to go for a hike with @ℭ𝔬𝔞𝔩𝔪𝔦𝔫𝔢𝔯⚒️🥾🚵‍♂️🤟. The tour was varied and cold, but the sun made the cold bearable in places. I hope we stay healthy and that next year will be just as good.

I wish you all a happy New Year! 🎇🍾🥂🥳

A great idea from the Hochwald trailer. A hike with many (60) people from our village. We set off before dusk but it quickly got dark, of course everyone was equipped with headlamps. At the end there was mulled wine etc.
A nice idea to strengthen the village community ☺️
