Fantastic view to France. My tip: Buy one of the local winegrowers in Ballrechten-Dottingen a good bottle of wine and eat here with a good Vesper, preferably in the sunset.

Before heading off to Neuenburg am Rhein for the endurance ride tomorrow, I used the time today to explore the Markgräflerland a bit

After we "moved into" our pitch at the Sulzbachtal campsite, we went for a short walk to the vineyard opposite. Lt. Description of the path 2.5 km - the flip flops are no problem. Well, then another 2 km were added - not so wild either.
