We took the tram (day ticket €7.40, single ticket €3.00) to Herrenkrug to stroll along the Elbe River in perfect December weather.
After our walk through the beautiful, albeit busy, river and floodplain landscape, we decided to walk to the obligatory Christmas market without using public transport – a

The plan to escape the fog 🌫️ at higher elevations worked perfectly this time.
Once again, I hiked through the Ungeheurer Grund valley onto the Rennsteig trail. The low sun 🌞 and the climbs kept me at the perfect temperature 😊.
As I left the Rennsteig, two hunters were removing their "Caution: Driven

Hoping in vain for some sunshine, I decided to head back to the other side of the Rennsteig trail instead of going to the Hainich National Park.
I followed familiar paths to the mountain lake at Ebertswiese, then continued on to discover a few new trails until I reached the Maßkopf (apparently, there

After a sumptuous breakfast 🥞 🍳, our walk took us under cloudy skies 🌥️ but still quite warm temperatures, past the golf course 🏌️ and along fields, forests, and vineyards to the Bad Windsheim Steigerwald, a mixed deciduous forest dominated by oak trees.
We had barely returned to the hotel and preheated

As we saw at @fadenkäfer and @Samweis 🖖, the chapel in the Reinhardsbrunn palace complex has reopened and is open to visitors until the end of the month.
So we waited for a break in the rain and set off on our Sunday stroll.
Through autumn-colored forests 🍂 we reached the palace 🏰.

I wasn't even sure if the waterfall was still in operation, but I set off at sunrise in temperatures around freezing.
I climbed through the Ungehuer Grund (Unbelievable Ground) to the Rennsteig Trail. In Brotterode, I was able to inspect the construction progress on the new Inselsberg ski jump; the foundations

It's getting light far too late these days.
The sun didn't make an appearance today, but it was dry with consistent temperatures.
It's always beautiful at the dams anyway, and autumn 🍂 is painting its pictures.
After spending most of the way on wide paths, the trails finally turned into something of a

Now we've finally finished our last evening. Before that, our feet 🦶 were rewarded with a long walk on the beach 🏖️, and then we went looking for something to eat 👀 on the increasingly empty beach promenade.
At least this, and the worsening weather, makes the end of our vacation easier.
So, see you

Quickly posting our last tour of 2025.
Strolling through a still-empty Christmas market has its charm, so on our way to shopping 🛍️ at the Allee Center (where @Lilli supported local retailers while I could continue my field studies on couple behavior in consumer temples undisturbed 🤭), we ambled along
