You can hear it from afar, and when it has passed you can still smell the coal dust. Simply beautiful - something from the old days.

The route leads past the oldest racecourse on the European continent, always along the railway line.

Sometimes wave to the train drivers, mostly they wave back. 🙋‍♀️🚂🚃 🙋‍♂️

A slightly shorter tour today because we left the house later.

You have to be careful on the cliffs near the Ghost Forest. In some places a section of the cycle path has already broken away and there are not visible barriers everywhere.

The Langer Heinrich floating crane can be seen in the Rostock Igapark as a technical monument. It was steam-powered, could lift 100 tons and was last used at the Rostock Neptun shipyard // from 1905 to 1978

We met for a tour together and enjoyed the sun's rays
The path led from the parking lot in Willhelmshöhe to Bad Doberan and from there to Heiligendamm.
For the way back we chose the path along the steep coast.
All in all it was a great afternoon.
