out of Halle, once again through the Franzigmark.
There was a beautiful sunset on the viewing rock above the Saale. Then on through the Franzigmark and the Brachwitz porphyry landscape. At the crossroads just before Friedrichschwerz turn left down to Brachwitz, take the ferry to the other side of the Saale and back along the Saale
nice, evening round, it …

A longer tour in the direction of Leipzig is announced for the weekend. I wanted to try the lighting and photo equipment beforehand. Check.... everything ok. 👍

The Franzigmark is always a good cycling area and the porphyry landscape behind it near Brachwitz/Gimritz also offers beautiful paths - just right for a short morning ride

short lap this afternoon, really good cycling weather even with a little sunshine.
I looked for two GeoCache hiding spots for Udo + drove a circle at the end (for the WP points)
