July 28, 2022,Mountainbike-Tour Fischtreppentour nach Döbritschen mit Claudi

A nice tour with a stop at the Porstendorf campsite and at the Döbritschen campsite where the fish ladder is located. Here the fish can be observed through a pane underwater when they use the fish ladder. Unfortunately, on this tour, except for one photo, all the others have disappeared.
