Despite the grey weather ☁️☁️, a lovely hike along the Wakenitz 🦢 followed by a stroll through Lübeck decorated for Christmas. 🎄✨ When it's green again 🌳☀️, I really want to hike from Lübeck along the Wakenitz to Lake Ratzeburg and then return by boat or canoe. 🤗
I can highly recommend stopping at Café Konvent. Great breakfast until 4 …

Very nice tour along the Wakenitz. Great food in the middle of the tour in the restaurant "Heimathafen". Unfortunately, many city passages on the way back.

The first half of the tour is much nicer.

A long-awaited wish has come true today: "White Christmas!"
In the Wakenitz nature reserve there was still snow today
However, the rain in the previous days has mostly turned the paths along the Wakenitz into an icy mogul slope🏔. Plus the really icy temperatures🥶…. that was hard core! 🧣🥾
It's good that we were able to "bend" our warming guardian …
