For the last day, interests differed greatly. Mikrobi wanted to ⛪️ and I wanted ⛰️🥾. So, everyone went their own way, and my tour started at Frankenberger Teich in the Steinberg district of Goslar. The mountain that gave it its name was also the first destination, with an observation tower built in 1888 and a suitable stamping point. After a …

I'm already confronted with the …

A beautiful hike of a manageable length. Doable for families with children. Nice playground about halfway through the tour. Possibility to stop for refreshments at the Steinberg Alm.

Sun, blue sky and snow: this was a very beautiful winter hike, for which winter was the right season because some of the asphalt disappeared under the snow today.

Today we went to Goslar for our personal season start. It was less busy than we thought, at the end there was an ice cream on the market square ☀️🐣

The 100th tour with Komoot on my birthday - if that doesn't fit 😁🎂🐾🥳

Nice little round to the Steinberg tower, past the Granestausee because it was very humid today. Varied paths and a great view from the Steinberg Tower. 👍

A real highlight: the Steinbergalm! Very nicely prepared, great flair and very nice staff. The food tasted great! 👍👍
