Hello, today I cycled to Köstritz and headed towards Reichhardtsdorf. At the end, there's a beautiful entrance into the forest on the so-called "Wald Autobahn," which ends in Tautenhain (Gasthaus zur Kanone). I had a great meal there. Then I continued on to Klosterlausnitz, and from there to Mühlthal, and then back home. Highly recommended. 🌞 🌞 🌞
