Today I was almost alone on a beautiful and varied tour. Great to enjoy the sun ☀️, listen to the birds and just walk.

We were really lucky with the weather ☀️ - When we started, it was still cloudy and very, very windy. The wind stayed, but the sun came out. And then 100m before we reached the campsite, it started to rain heavily - what more could you want 😊
Great hike around Hohenneuffen with beautiful viewpoints, great oak trees and also …

A nice walk around the castle 🏰 Hohenneufen. Some sections are quite steep. The rain before made it a bit slippery.
Very nice, also good to walk in summer - with lots of shade. We stopped at the castle and had a good meal 👍

We did another tour of the HochGEHberge today. Simply beautiful. The landscape and also the great signage - highly recommended

A bit strenuous up the mountain to the castle, but absolutely worth it!!
