Today we're going on a little hike with the kids.

The gnome hiking trail in Schafheim is very lovingly designed and hikers of all ages have fun with the puzzle.

At the end there's a nice big playground with a pond where you can let off steam.

Thank you @Klaus for the idea and for accompanying us.
