April 28, 2024,Axtbachtal – Aussicht Ottenhausen Runde von Arnbach

After a long break, I did a longer tour today, discovered something somewhere, saved it and set off.
I discovered a completely different corner in my immediate vicinity.
I had to deal with beautiful narrow paths, wide trails and asphalt, it was definitely worth it for me - great surroundings.
It's worth exploring more here. 😃
