September 27, 2023,Blockline Loop 1: Holzhau » Altenberg » Hermsdorf » Holzhau

Difficult bike tour with many steep climbs and bad paths. The great view from Kahleberg and the snack there were a small compensation for the effort.

Today Blockline 1 was on the agenda.
So we set off early because of the heat.
If you (woman) turn the watch off in the middle, you should start it again, so it was actually 56 km. What I underestimated a bit was the altitude🤭.
But...arrived safely and pretty exhausted. 😝😡

Today Loop 1 towards Altenberg. Much more pleasant to ride than Loop 3. Even the rough sections were easy to master. Again, well signposted. Surprise: the swimming pool in the middle of nowhere. And the Rechenberg eco-pool at the end was just right.
