Orrotsee

Highlight • Lake

Nice bathing lake. There are interesting things to discover along the way. There is also a water tap (not lake water of course) if you want to refill your water bottle, right next to a water shack.

Summstein at Orrotsee

Stand in front of the humming stone and hum into the hole. Sounds weird. And there are other things to try out in the vicinity. Interesting for children.

Today I was at the beautiful Orrotsee again and then did a little tour over Hohenberg.
The route was just about bearable given the temperatures today, because I was mostly in the shade.
It was lovely 🥳😎🤩

First round in the new year😉
There were a few on the way. There is a parking lot right at the start of the fitness trail.
There are beaver tracks everywhere... not to mention the dams that have been built, sometimes up to a height difference of around 1.5 meters 🫣
But none spotted. Maybe another time...
