@Biitii 105 💗💜 and I braved the weather today. We stayed dry almost the entire time and the little bit of rain didn't bother us. The Cuckoo Trail was very muddy today. It borders on the vitality tour “Stone, Wine and Color” and, in contrast, does not have as many highlights. But you have to say that the sections between …

Today we were on the cuckoo way. Nice but short round. We liked it despite the rain. Saw and heard lots of birds. But unfortunately no cuckoo. Here are the official directions.

After we were already in the region today, we added a second VitalTour to it. The VitalTour Kuckucksweg starts at the parking lot of the sports field in Hergenfeld. The town of Hergenfeld is circled in a large arc and various vineyard locations and beautiful vantage points are reached.
Then the route meets the VitalTour stone, wine and color komoot.de/tour/308127635, …

For a change, a small contemplative tour in front of the front door.
Because there was still an appointment to be made, it started late.
Luckily there was plenty of fresh wind and a few clouds, so the temperatures were quite pleasant for the open spaces.☀️⛅🌤

After a long break, finally a tour again. To call such a route a hiking trail is cheeky. Deep, muddy ground, plowed up by machines and horses, and yawningly boring. I definitely do not recommend this route!
I was just glad to be on the road again at least once. My condition is currently miserable.
