Here, very large areas on the forest floor are overgrown with amaryllis and wild garlic. Wonderful to look at when they are in bloom and to smell wild garlic too.

Beautiful short hike through deciduous forest, in spring large areas with wild garlic and March mugs, great panoramic view of the Harz Mountains!

Somehow geopaths usually have a slightly dusty image...
The weather on Sunday was pretty mixed and my slightly stricken cold soul needed a large dose of early bloomers.
