After yesterday's highly scientific preliminary investigations, today we actually went to the second part of our self-experiment to clarify the question of all questions.

But.
Exactly like that.

The day of days had come.
Luciano had been pondering for quite some time about the best way to cycle around Lake Garda.
Although, strictly speaking, there is only one way.
The simple question was merely about the direction of travel: clockwise or counter-clockwise?
And that's where it got complicated.

After the introductory tour and the subsequent rearrangement of the legs, a little "hunger pang" plagued us. Besides, there was something to celebrate. So I chose a familiar and suitable location in neighboring Riva.
A leisurely stroll there - just a 4.5-kilometer stroll along the promenade - seemed like

Luciano got in touch a few days ago. I was just on Pão de Açúcar when his message arrived: Was I back in my home territory? He wanted to do a lap around the Lago with me.
Was that meant as a joke?
Anyway, Luciano knows that I’m always up for crazy ideas. Especially when they have something to do with the

Second day in Rio - and it was going to be intense. On the agenda was an extensive shopping spree. You don't treat yourself often.
So we went up and down a street parallel to Copacabana. No bling-bling store was to be left unobserved, plus countless clothing stores. Shop windows, jewelry, fashion, even

After all the shopping madness, there was actually something to celebrate. To properly celebrate the evening, we had reserved a table at Fogo de Chão.
For those who don't know the name: Fogo de Chão is a renowned Brazilian churrascaria where meat is served directly at the table according to the Rodizio

After all the reptiles, trails and nature experiences, it should now be a bit of big city feeling.
However, not just any big city, and certainly not comparable to a European one. The next destination was Rio de Janeiro.
I had already been there a few times and was therefore quite happy with this choice

It was supposed to be "just a quick trip" to Lagoa da Chica. A leisurely stroll, then. No big ambitions, no special challenges. Just stretching the legs a bit. What could possibly go wrong?
Well, who would have expected to encounter a magnificent caiman there again? Well-fed, it lay in the sun, soaking

Originally, it was supposed to be just a small, casual round. Just a quick trip to Lagoa da Chica before the day finally disappeared into the hammock.
So, completely relaxed.
Upon arriving at the lake, we first saw a few of the usual birds. And then, lo and behold: today there were also some Capybaras

Since the crocodiles living here had so far been clearly underrepresented in our hiking reports, that was supposed to change today.
Daniela promised us almost a guarantee of encounters with the large reptiles in a nearby swamp area.
So we set off for the northwestern tip of Ilha Santa Catarina.

There was also this one "secret" waterfall, which had not been recorded by Komoot at all yet.
That was the destination. And so that the tour didn't have to end right after the waterfall, "Morro da Coroa" was targeted as another destination at the other end of the bay. One has to set priorities, after

Today was simply about "going for a walk". No big hike, no spectacular summit goal, just set off.
First, we went from "Campeche" to "Lagoa da Chica".
There we met some extremely well-fed "Capivaras" again.
That is, capybaras, which obviously have no problems with the

"Barra da Lagoa" initially presented itself to me as a rather dirty little town.
Garbage was lying around everywhere on the streets.
Perhaps the garbage collection was on strike, or they had simply decided to take a holiday today.
On the sidewalk, a stray dog was diligently subjecting a garbage bag to a

The last road bike tour of our current Lake Garda trip was due. But where to go?
A tour over Monte Velo? Sounds good. Or wait, no - after all, the Strada della Forra also offers a lot for the eyes. And who knows how long you can still ride this spectacular road before the next rockfall
