Tips

Tobias ⛰️🏃‍♂️

January 6, 2021

Hiking

Beautiful forest near the witch's cottage, which doesn't exist, only the path. The Gnome Trail has lost some of its appeal (as of December 2024), as entropy has taken its toll on the gnomes, and a severe storm also damaged them. Only a few stations remain. Update Dec. 2025: Many gnomes are no longer to be found. Entropy strikes again!
