Three hours in the winery because it was raining and then walked back to the hotel in the dry. 🤗

It was icy and dark on my round between Naumburg and Bad Kösen. A dense cloud cover hung over the Saale valley and did not let through a single ray of sunshine. Now and then a few snowflakes danced in the air. Hardly anyone was out in the vineyards in the weather on Sunday. Overall, a round that is easy …

Beautiful tour. My recommendation would be to start the tour at the wineries on the asphalt road, as the path through the vineyards offers more shade. Of course, if you want to stop by, you have to go in the recommended direction. But in advance, the sun quickly becomes swimmery with wine.

Today we're off again to the wine-growing region of Bad Kösen. Of course, a glass of wine was a must. The view from the vineyards is breathtakingly beautiful. The hike is no problem if you're in good shape. There are plenty of rest stops to enjoy everything.

Beautiful hike first above, then in the middle of the vineyards. Pforta Monastery with its park is particularly recommended, as is the setting for Harry Potter.

February 12, 2022,Schlammige Weinbergrunde mit Abstecher nach Kloster Pforta

Beautiful round over the vineyards on the Saale between Bad Kösen and Naumburg. After the start it goes straight uphill. Once on the plateau, the climbs are done. On today's February day, the paths have softened properly. It's definitely easier to walk in the summer. But probably also fuller. After beautiful views over the Saale valley, we went downhill again …
