September 12, 2021,Stellplatz Ilsenburg nach Wernigerode

A nice, short tour. Werningerode is very beautiful, the castle absolutely recommendable - 7 € entry is moderate. From the tourist information office you can take a little train (it's really called that) up to the castle and back. Nice daily program after changing pitch.

If the weather or time doesn't allow for a 'day trip', the destination is Klostercafé Drübeck! And so it was today at lunchtime. Cool, but sunny. This tranquil restaurant has never let us down with its opening hours! That should be rewarded again.
A visit to the house meant an early return. But there's always enough time for a cappuccino.
