Cycled around the lake again for a long time. Today, probably totally calm due to the weather, I met a cyclist on more than 30 km.

I only know the Forggensee in summer: full of water 💦 Fascinating in winter with very little water.... and then of course: the noticeable presence of the fairy tale king from a completely different time 🫅🐍✨

In the evening, we went for another lovely final lap around the lake. There was even time for a draft beer and an ice cream. And we were able to find/log a geocache on an island in the lake. How? Out of your clothes, into the cool water and swim across 🏊🏼!

Leisurely bike ride around the Füssen lake landscape.

We made the most of the small gap in the clouds this morning. Because of the rain yesterday, running wasn't that motivating and there was mostly slushy snow towards the top.
So we went on the first leisurely bike ride of the year. From Schwangau around Lake Forggensee over the simplest paths …

A rest with a swim stop 🏊🏼 was a must in today's hot temperatures! Blue, clear, cold water, just wonderful😊
By the way...the Forggensee is the largest reservoir in Germany.
