July 31, 2024,Wanderung mal in die andere Richtung

Today we stayed on our side of the lake again. First towards Fürstenthal, then on to the tip and back over the ring wall and the Hülsenburg, of which there is nothing great to see anymore.

Instead we enjoyed the beautiful view, from which we then went back down to our peninsula, where a cool non-alcoholic wheat beer was waiting …

Some leaves have fallen and others have grown since we were last at Knorreichenstieg. Somewhere in the depths of the cell phone photo album there are photos of a very young Fly and us with little hiking experience. 😂
