January 2, 2025,Wannsee Runde Düppeler Forst und Pfaueninsel

My child gave me a great hiking backpack for Christmas, which I had to test out straight away.
Today I took advantage of the perfect weather, packed my backpack and put on my sunglasses.
We set off from the Wannsee S-Bahn station, past the House of the Wannsee Conference memorial

After the ferry, we soon reached the palace, which was built between 1794 and 1795 by the Prussian King Frederick William II as a place of relaxation and retreat. The …
