March 17, 2024,Wanderung nass von oben.. von unten..😊

A nice tour.. sometimes drizzle from above, sometimes a little ☀️ and a lot of wet from below 😍
The Easter decorations were made from the forest and there were plenty of wild garlic.

12kmh...only Carlson from the roof can manage that...😉
A well-known tour...but this time with my girl.
