September 16, 2023,Labertaler Höhenweg 👣🙋🏼‍♂️

Today I went on a ride that I've had on my list since February. @Markus she went in slightly different weather back then.
Today the first climb had us sweating from every pore.
Once we got to the top, we walked a few steps too far, which a few beautiful sunflowers didn't see as a big deal and posed for …

We really liked it! The paths are easy to walk and well signposted. But you have to be careful because there are a lot of branches. Recommended in the winter months because there are no cyclists then :)

Nice round for the most part through the forest and along the Laaber. On the Höhenweg you can hardly see anything of the valley. Everything overgrown. Looking up from below offers interesting views.

Today I was once again with Hubert, my son's father-in-law, in the valley of the black Laaber. The start was at the Münchsmühle and high above Laabertal we went to the beautiful Bugruine there. After a refreshment - good pizza - we went back down along the Laaber.

Today, when the weather was nice, I went for a ride again with my neighbor. The start was at the Münchsmühle in the valley of the black Laaber. We first went to Laaber on mostly "golden" forest paths and, after a good stop, up to the castles.
We also passed the Burgstüberl, where in 1989 a terrible quadruple murder 😵‍💫😂😵‍💫 …
