Today we went from the Bölle hiking car park up to the Teck with a detour to the Sybillenhöhle...then to the yellow rock and on to the Rauber ruins. Then back to the parking lot.

A Sunday round for lunch at Teck Castle. Wind and cloud-tossed Burgberg.
A beautiful autumn round let the ocher yellow of autumn move into your heart again.
The sun then shone for a short time at the very end.
