A wonderful, varied tour. Accompanied by 10,000s of mosquitoes, we were able to enjoy the area.😊

October 13, 2024,(geführte)Tour durchs Hellbachtal.

We had actually booked a guided tour. However, some members of the group were so slow that we needed 1.5 hours for the first 2.5 km (yes, including some explanations from the tour leader).
