Nice tour, but only sand / gravel.
The weather today was pleasantly not too warm and the sun has hidden.

October 19, 2021,Alte Salzstraße Teil 2 von Lauenburg nach Mölln oder aller Anfang ist schwer

Every beginning is difficult ... we pushed the bikes steadily uphill on cobblestones for almost a kilometer. Unfortunately, the mood didn't rise accordingly - but that's also part of it.

A very relaxing tour along the Elbe-Lübeck canal to Mölln. Great scenery and the route back through fields, which wasn't along the canal, was really great too.

The old town of Lauenburg is well worth seeing. We have often visited the pretty seafaring town by bike. Finally from Mölln, to then go back by train. This time we did it the other way around and came by train. Twice in a row the route along the canal would be tiring.
In good weather with not too much …

Unfortunately, Komot did not record the route from Stove to Lauenburg. Then it went through the forest. We even spotted a deer. Lauenburg is a town well worth seeing. At some point it got pretty boring along the canal
