A nice little round.
Certainly great in summer, with forest sections.
Today was a challenge in some places after all the recent rain. Lots of great views of the Borgloher area.

The last round of the year took me to Borgloh because I'm spending New Year's Eve with my youngest daughter, her future son-in-law and her little granddaughter, and they live in Hilter 🙃

We're going to have a cozy raclette and then a games night

Accidentally saved the tour prematurely, hence the second part.

Actually, a 5 km hike is too short for me and since I'm traveling by bus and train, it's actually too expensive for that. But the Deutschlandticket makes it possible. 😀 After work I didn't feel like it too much either, but the 5 km were also great for body and …

Very nice loop👍.
ONLY: from kilometer 3.5 to 4.0, the path is almost impassable. Just tall grass, thick undergrowth, and lots of thorn bushes. I didn't even get a chance to take any more photos.
That's a disgrace for TERRA.track😤😤😤😤😤
