After work, I quickly took a short hike up the Großer Gleichberg. Currently, the air is filled with the wonderful scent of lily of the valley and woodruff. The view toward Franconia is simply stunningly beautiful at this time of year. The Großer Gleichberg is also less crowded than its smaller neighbor.
