March 3, 2024,Bad Elster nach Adorf und über Jugelsburger Höhe zurück

A nice hike along forest paths, some cycle paths with a detour into the Adorf "town center" ~ ice cream parlor on the market square is delicious but relatively expensive.
The view from the Jugelsburger Höhe is particularly fine in the late afternoon.
