It's a bit strange to visit a hotspot when there are no tourists there. But since I've already been to the Trusetal waterfall, I deliberately visited it in winter... well, there was nothing to see, because the waterfall itself is closed in winter, but the landscape is still great and the goal this time was to get stamps ;-) Unfortunately, …

An extra stamp directly at the waterfall parking lot at the small wooden hut. And it's not a green box as we know it❗️

Greetings 🖖

🙋🏼‍♂️I wish all Komootlers a Merry Christmas 🎅🏻🎄. Today I did a little loop around Trusetal 🥾 🥾 and collected the 💯Touring stamp. Nice loop along the Trusetal waterfall, which unfortunately has no water 💧💧 at this time of year.

This year, we're well-stocked with long weekends, so a long weekend trip is a perfect opportunity. It's just a shame that my favorite man's day off was canceled at short notice. So, unfortunately, I had to enjoy this beautiful day alone. We had several reasons for visiting the Bad Salzungen area, and one of them is my last Christmas present, …

The short loop around the Trusetal Valley was a good idea after a strenuous day of rehab, and the stamps have to be collected 😉😁 otherwise, I would have planned a different tour to collect the stamps – too many towns for my taste.

We decided to go on a Touringen kids tour on a whim. The Trusetaler waterfall wasn't bad at all 👍. Since we were in the area, we also visited Altenberg Castle again and collected the stamp from the Chinese tea house.

A very beautiful loop around Trusetal. If you climb the steps next to the waterfall, you'll see it right next to you. The watercourse path, however, is more comfortable.
The route leads along very beautiful paths, with magnificent views along the way.
However, what was incorrectly marked in the stamp booklet, and which irritated me a bit, was that none …

After repeating the Brotterode nature trail, we immediately did the adventure tour around Trusetal to collect 3 more stamps 😃
271 and 272 are hanging way too high 🫣
The recommended Café Wintersport was unfortunately closed, so we only got our reward in Tabarz 😋😃
