A sunny tour along the Mulde. It was mostly on good hiking trails and except for a small climb just before Grimma it was mostly flat. The car parked in the parking lot in front of the manor, where there was delicious coffee and ice cream at the end

Last hike this year around the Mulde in spring instead of winter weather

A great lap on the Mulde with a stop at the Höfgen ship mill.

The downside is that the cable ferry in Höfgen is currently out of …
