March 8, 2022,Mit dem Märkischen Wanderbund durch das NSG Zarth und den Reichhelms Park um die 'Sabinchenstadt' (RB-Treuenbrietzen - RB-Treuenbrietzen)

... today I was actually on my first (!) self-guided hike for the Märkischer Wanderbund with 16 participants in perfect weather on this wonderful tour around Treuenbrietzen.

The two idyllic pleasure hiking sections of the tour showed their most beautiful side for the season and a red kite circled over our sunny rest area.

... today I was on this wonderful route with hiking friend Thomas KB, who was allowed to play the 'guinea pig' for me for the planned group hike on March 8th.

My aim was to check the timing again, to check the current condition and walkability of the route and to evaluate possible places to take a break. By chance …

Today, with the best weather, a tour planned by Frank.
Thank you for that.
He also met Susanne on the train, so the tour was reversed so that we can hike the beginning together.
The NSG Zarth and the park are highly recommended.

... together with Steffen Lehmann from Reiseland Brandenburg, I was out and about very spontaneously today, after my actual 'Walk´n´Talk' hiking appointment unfortunately fell through at short notice. Since Steffen wanted to document the city of Treuenbrietzen a bit for work anyway with photo shoots and video reels in a 'working hike', the joint tour was quickly decided and we …

... today I rummaged through Frank's 'Planned Group Hikes' collection, on which we were allowed to vote.

I experienced the tour exactly as it is described. Full marks, most of the paths are very natural, so you can cope with the short stretch of road.

Thanks for the template, Frank!
