The Chaam forests, a somewhat strange name, isn't it? Do you pronounce this like chaotic and chlamydia? (and no, I don't flag it, nor am I a mess 😉)

You will find this area only half an hour's drive from my home. Coniferous and deciduous forests that are interspersed with pieces of heath, fens, narrow passages, ... really a treat …
