If you do this round at the right time, you can eat your fill of raspberries and blackberries. - Unfortunately, as everywhere in the Lappwald, there are already markings where the harvester will soon flatten everything.

November 30, 2024,Teatime am Schafsteich 🫖

This test run after a long injury break was good for the soul, but after 4km it led to persistent pain. What a pity. I'll probably have to slow down a bit. 🫤
Despite the freezing temperatures, we took a tea break at the Schafsteich, also to try out the new alcohol stove setup. We had a lot of fun!
