I really wanted to go there again... spontaneously planned this morning and immediately put it into practice. Short version: over the mountain down into the Eiderbachtal, the Eiderbach has decent water, just picturesque...then we went up to the cherry rocks.

Today we went into the deep Palatinate Forest. It was a bombastic day. The supply of food and drink was once again perfect. A day with lots of chatter and laughter. 🤣🤩

@Bettina brought me to the destination of Eiderbachtal, I took over most of the tour around it from @haertera, THANKS to both of them.
Very nice tour, especially the Eiderbachtal was a blessing at today's temperatures.
The photos got a bit mixed up...I don't know why....🤷‍♀️
