October 22, 2022,🥾📷Kleine Runde an der Elster in Bad Köstritz (Wildgatter - Rundtempel der Göttin Demeter)

🥾After I had business to do in Bad Köstritz today, it made sense to hike at least a little bit!!
A quick look at Komoot and I found what I was looking for right away 👍
Although it was still raining heavily on the way there and didn't look like running, it was still really nice.☀️👍
