Hiking

A beautiful "root path" where you can simply feel the forest.

Hiking

The root path was really slippery today, there was a lot of mud on the way, I was lacking in fitness after the winter break, but it was manageable with hiking trails.

Hiking

A really nice trail/hiking trail that is really fun both by bike and on foot. Definitely be careful when cycling, there are a few nasty roots 😎
