January 9, 2024,Itter- "Steig" - Von Benrath nach Vogelpark (1/2) (K)

And again created a new 👍Steig👌 in / from Düsseldorf, as always, this time from the mouth to the source.

The weather was great, blue sky and ☀️pure, but really cold throughout - 4°.

But the cold didn't bother us. Finally no rain.

The routing was completely planned on the PC, but was also changed on site.
