After the hustle and bustle, the noise of firecrackers and the bad air, it feels so good to just enjoy the silence in nature, move around and take a deep breath. It's especially nice when it's one of my favorite tours southeast of Berlin.

The beautiful weather had to be used again today ☀️
We extended the circular route around the Wernsdorfer See a bit and walked back along the Seddinsee and the Oder-Spree Canal.

Note:
The circular hiking trail leads in an arc around the Wernsdorfer See. The lake itself can only be seen for a small section near the lock.
It is a mostly shady path through the Wernsdorfer See nature reserve and definitely worth a visit. 👍
The tour takes you along the Seddinsee and the Oder-Spree Canal.

Today is another one of my favorite tours, especially beautiful and varied in this wonderful autumn weather.
New for me was "the black hole", discovered through a highlight on komoot. A small, somewhat arduous but worthwhile detour from the main path leads to this small, dark lake in the silting area of the Wernsdorfer See.

Today the three of us hiked a small round around the Wernsdorfer See. I took over the tour from Ingo, who introduced it to Komoot. A nice round, even if the Wernsdorfer See was not actually visible. But views of the Seddinsee and Oder-Spree Canal made up for it.

It's blooming! 🌺🌱

Today I was out and about between Brandenburg and Berlin. The sun and the beginning of spring brought a lot of joy during the tour. (The BUT comes further down.)
In some sections, especially along the Oder-Spree Canal, you could enjoy the afternoon sun in peace. 🌞

The dangerously grey sky didn't stop us from taking a lovely walk around Lake Wernsdorf, along Lake Seddin and the Oder-Spree Canal. We were even treated to a bit of sunshine. It wasn't until we were on the way back that it really started to rain heavily.
