The Open Garden Gate is always an event I especially enjoy cycling to in dry weather.
This time, I chose the Gubensek family's beautiful natural garden in St. Hubert near Kempen:

A day off and no rain! So, off I went for a short bike ride along the Niers River. A truly animal-filled ride, I could say...with Highland cattle, other cattle, four (!) storks in a pasture, geese, and a pair of swans on the Niers.
Oh, I forgot about the mosquitoes 😂.
It was lovely 👍🏻🚴🏻

Due to the weather forecast, we had to significantly shorten the originally planned route, No. 56. It's a shame for the organizers and the many volunteers who make this wonderful annual event possible.
My highlight was the visit to the Little Jerusalem Chapel in Neersen. It's not normally open.

What a beautiful last day of vacation. The weather couldn't have been better. A pleasant 21 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds.
We rented the bikes from Angie's E-Bike in Fischbach, simply because it was within walking distance. The bikes were great, only a basket or saddlebag was missing, but that

Shortly before the end of the vacation, there was one more wish on my list: Vigiljoch.
The cable car and a single chairlift take you up to over 1,800 meters. This gondola ride on the chairlift is simply brilliant: the climb is quiet and slow. The only thing you can hear is the birdsong. Fantastic.

Did I mention that I love cable cars?
While the thermometer in the valley was already showing 30 degrees Celsius in the morning, the lift from Falzleben whisked us to the Piffinger Köpfl. From there, we continued on foot counterclockwise to the Waidmannalm (highly recommended). The outward journey, partly

When it's 34 degrees Celsius in the valley, the mountain is even more tempting.
With the guest card, the Vöran cable car is free, and you can reach almost 1,200 meters in just a few minutes (parking at the valley station is free, by the way).
From here, we followed the signs for 'Beimsteinknott'. The counterclockwise

Einmal mehr eine klasse Tour über weitestgehend gute Radwege fernab vom Verkehr. Das Auffelder Bauerncafé ist auf halber Strecke immer wieder einen Stopp wert.

Combining the necessary (returning books) with the pleasant and enjoying the dry autumn weather.
Breakfast, however, was more of an indulgence in the form of breakfast at the Stautenhof bistro. The Stautenhof is an award-winning organic farm with an attached organic shop, restaurant, children's playground
