After the delicious fried fish in Uwe's Fischräuscherei, a short digestive walk was necessary. We opted for the short Tüschenbroicher tour past the Ulrichskapelle, through cool forest over the Schwalm and past the Tüschenbroicher mill and the castle.

First buy coffee in NL Vlodrop so that the machine can continue to run on the campsite. Then we went on a short tour to Tüschenbroich Castle.

Two short circular trails in the Schwalm-Nette Nature Park combine to form a figure eight: the premium walking trail 'Tüschenbroicher Runde' and the Ölmühlen-Pfad (Oil Mill Trail) from the Leicht.Wander.Welt collection.

I need advice why Komoot doesn't calculate the tours properly 😠. It's been like this for 3 months now

It should actually be a longer round with "old" 😉 friends.
The increasingly dark sky and the beginning rain 🌧️ made the "hike" much shorter.
It also fits that I started Komoot too late 🤭 and stopped for a reason that I can no longer recognize 😂😂
