A really stupid path on foot: only asphalt, booooring! But beautiful landscape.

Very nice flat hike. If the weather had been better.
Then the hike might have made an even better impression.
Lots of meadows, fields, Bieslicher Island, lots of birds, pure nature.
Next time we'll go to the town center of Xanten and Undgebung 😉😉
It's supposed to be very nice there!!?

Despite everything, it was nice to do it in the lovely weather 👍👫

It's nice to drive …
