August 7, 2022,Sinterterrassen – Donntalbach Runde von Oberlenningen
Did a really nice tour today.
I've wanted to go to the sinter terraces for a long time and today I tackled it.
Unfortunately, you can only view the sinter terraces from one point, you are not allowed to enter any of the other paths. I find her really beautiful.

Danger! From km 10.7 to approx. km 11 difficult conditions with steep inclines.
