Stamp hiking in the Elm. The circular route leads from the Lutterspring hiking car park to the cathedral. We also made a detour to the town hall to buy a hiking stamp booklet.

December 7, 2024,Kaiserliche flüssige Sonne & die Sprünge der Lutter in KöLu 4,2km

A brilliant red sunrise at breakfast was followed by a dreary, damp grey.
