September 28, 2021,Meißen -Schloß Proschwitz

Today was a very nice and varied tour. Through wonderful vineyards, rustic forests and nice places with beautiful courtyards, mansions and castles. The nature of the paths ranged from paved to adventurous. Unfortunately, the weather was at times rather third-rate, so there are hardly any photos of the part on the Elbuferweg although there is no lack of motifs there. …

According to the weather report, it was said for today that it will remain dry. Well, it wasn't like that. Therefore there are a bit cloudy photos. Slightly wet shoes, because it was partly close to the vineyards. It was nice anyway and will definitely be done again. At least hikes in and around Meissen, with or without the Elbe. …

Before the rainy weekend threatened, a little tour near Meißen. Along the Elbe, stealing cherries and a small glass of Goldriesling, which really pops after a few steps 🤣🤣🍷🍷

A small but nice tour for Unity Day with friends. And luckily there are people who work on a day like this. So you can enjoy delicious wine and tarte flambée. The Saxon wine route is always worth a trip.😍😎

Today we went from Meissen to Proschwitz Castle 🍷 to sample some wine, then continued over the slopes of the Elbe Valley to the Carp Tavern 🏡🍻. A fresh breeze whistled at around 20°C ⛅ up above. After refreshments, we headed back along the Elbe.
It was beautiful 😊👍🥰.
