June 9, 2023,Wackersdorf: Rundweg um den Steinberger See 🏄‍♂️ ⛱️ und Knappensee 🦢 🌳
Today's hike has taken us to the Steinberger and Knappensee 😅 a circumnavigation of the two lakes with a total of almost 13km was on the program. The intermediate goal was of course the adventure wooden ball, which is right on the lake and offers wonderful views of the lake. We also managed the few meters of altitude well 🫢 …

Super wonderful area with a stop on the sun terrace in the Radlcafe, Seepromenade 9.
The hike is easy and you can easily manage the Steinberger and the Knappensee in one go. Worth it!

The Neunburg/Schwandorf area has us again so quickly 😂 We picked up the car from the garage and then headed back in the same direction. When we arrived at the lake, we were already looking forward to the wooden ball, but it looked very empty everywhere. According to the internet, it is open from Monday to Sunday... Should... Only on …

Beautiful circular route, great paths, clean landscape and just before the Knappensee there is a café with a bicycle course. Such a great location, you definitely have to stop by. Has been open since September 5th and daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Cappuccino was delicious 👍, cakes, pies and small snack items are also available. We'll definitely come …

Small but nice 🥾 tour around the Steinberger See. Very nice circular route with countless opportunities to sit down and enjoy the view ⛵️🌊.

Until 1982, huge bucket wheel excavators mined around 185 million tons of brown coal in the region. When all economically viable coal deposits were exhausted, the mines were flooded: the birth of the Upper Palatinate Lake …

Actually we wanted to do a bike ride today for Helga's birthday.

After the sky was overcast and one or two raindrops fell, we decided without further ado to make a birthday trip to Lake Steinberger.

Like most spontaneous decisions, it was a good one. We spent a leisurely morning without large crowds at Lake Steinberger.
