March 23, 2025,Zschopautal Weg Lauenhain,Ringeltal-Mittweida,Rössgen

Rivers and river valleys are simply special in every season.
That's why I was drawn back to the beautiful Zschopau Valley today. I started in light drizzle 🌦 in Lauenhain. I took the Via Mala towards Ringeltal. Although there are still closure signs there, the path is very easy to walk on, the small bridge has been repaired and only …

I even had sun 🌞 and blue skies for about half of the way, really nice weather. Then rain ☔ for the second half, but no storm. From the finish then it really worked.

October 7, 2023,Die Zschopau ist Sachsens schönster Fluss (A.R. 1877)

A.R. demonstrated good taste in 1877, and the Zschopau is a lovely place to hike. Who is the most beautiful in the country may be answered by the water level. We award 10 points. Although the Zschopau only plays a minor role today, we want to continue our tour from the open monument in Mittweida and have to kill time …

December 19, 2021,#78 🇩🇪 SACHSEN/MITTELSACHSEN ☁️Runde von Mittweida🎄🌟🏤🌟🎄und dem Zschopautal entlang

Such a bad weather tour or I'll make it colorful ...
Mittweida made the race today. A city center shining with its shop windows and facades made the tired eyes widen.
"A playful highlight was the huge Christmas calendar at the town hall, which now has 19 colorful open windows".

Ringethal - round the Zschopau. The yellow round was not possible because of course there was no ferry 🙃 It was still a nice tour ☺️
