My wife's wish to get coffee in Holland was granted. As expected, it was completely packed, but it worked out 😊 The market square in Rothenbach was completely overcrowded, so there was no parking available. The weather was okay, although it was still a bit chilly in the forest on the return trip. Otherwise, everything was fine!

Nice tour with my wife in nice weather. I finally got my fries at the market in Rotenbach 😊

Nice, quick tour through the Meinweg to the "free" Netherlands, where the heather is now in bloom and you can experience one highlight after another along the way. In Rothenbach, directly behind the German border, there are many shopping opportunities (even on Sundays!) and of course "Frikandel met Friet" or - depending on the season - Bakvis or Matjes.

A short tour through the Meinweg in strong winds to burn off some calories. I took the opportunity to have a coffee ☕, much to my wife's delight, and brought a large supply. A short, familiar route with no major incidents. 😊
